[Air-L] Free Web-based Software for the Remainder of 2021 & Two New Python Toolkits

[Stuart Shulman]

Academics on this list can now get free access to DiscoverText for the
remainder of 2021. All that is required is that you take a 15- or 30-minute
free training session via the web and we will sponsor your work. Whether
you are working alone, in a group, or offering a module in a course, we
will fully support you, your team, or your class.

To book a free training session:

If you have recently been granted access to academic Twitter data and
prefer to work in Python, we have released two toolkits for that purpose:

The first is a real time or historical Twitter collector. The second, newly
released in June 2021, is the alpha version of our "Trust Defender" which
is a collection of scripts used to train and run a classifier to classify
Twitter users as potential bots.
