Speed Dating - ResBaz Goes to GSHSS

By [Yuandra Ismiraldi](http://twitter.com/iniandra)

Rain did not stop the ResBaz team doing a speed dating session with the Graduate School of Humanities and Social Sciences a few weeks ago!

So, what is speed dating ? Speed dating is an event where researchers have the chance to meet and chat with Research Community Coordinators of the Research Bazaar Team and see the various tools that can help their research. See more on speed dating here and here.

The event was a hit! With students & researchers from various GSHSS programs coming together and finding the tool of their dreams. We had people from Education, Linguistics, Communications and Public Policy among many others. We had a variety of tools on show during the event such as survey & spreadsheet tools such as Google Forms , Kobo Toolbox, and Open Refine. We also had Authorea for document collaboration, Nvivo for qualitative analysis, and Omeka for digital library collection.

If you’re interested in learning more about the tools or doing some speed dating in your own department, feel free to contact us ! We also plan to do more speed dating sessions in the future so watch this space for new developments!
