Three members of the OII [Oxford Internet Institute] teaching faculty are 
to receive awards from the University of Oxford, in recognition of their 
excellent contributions to the department's teaching over the past year. 
They will receive the awards at a presentation ceremony hosted by the 
Vice-Chancellor, Professor Andrew Hamilton, on 10 November 2011.

     Dr Bernie Hogan, for his role in developing two of the OII's most 
innovative MSc courses: "Online Social Networks" (developed with Dr
Sandra Gonzalez-Bailon) and "Digital Social Research". Online Social 
Networks is an introduction to the analysis of online social networks,
providing students with the tools necessary to undertake research on 
online networks, and to give an overview of the type of questions that
these data can answer. Digital Social Research familiarizes students with 
a variety of methods for capturing online data in a host of
formats, and techniques for answering research questions based on data 
from the web.
