Network Analysis and visualization appears to be an interesting tool to give the researcher the ability to see its data from a new angle. Because Gephi is an easy access and powerful network analysis tool, we propose a tutorial designed to allow everyone to make his first experiments on two complementary datasets.
After a short introduction about the basis of SNA and some examples which shows the potential of this tool and gives some inspiration, this tutorial is divided into 2 main "exercices": a geographical network of 1000 individuals sending letters all over Europe and a 2-mode network of 100 members of 10 different institutions.
