Materials on Digital Skills - to be published
Peter Verhaar is in the process of publishing all his learning materials on digital skills on eduSources - a platform for OER managed by SURF. This is a project with Anna Benjamins and Frederik Harmsen from Ecolé. We plan to create a collection of open materials on topics such as network analysis, database design, GIS and data analysis.
