\nTime: 9:30-13:00<\/p>\n

In this workshop, participants will be encouraged to examine their own scholarly practices and those of others, refining our responses to the fundamental question: \u201cwhat are Humanities research data?\u201d \u00a0The modes by which the digital disrupts traditional methodologies in the Humanities will be explored in detail, as will the ways in which Humanities methods and practices have changed to respond to digital research data. \u00a0The session will combine lecture and discussion with a hands-on exercise in evaluating diverse Humanities sources, testing our ability to identify and to extract Humanities research data, and to respond to such objects in a way that reflects their digital nature.<\/p>\n

Workshop Four:\u00a0Defining Digital Humanities<\/strong><\/p>\n

Instructor: Dr Michelle Doran

\nTime: 9:00-13:00<\/p>\n

What constitutes digital humanities (or what constitutes the digital humanities) is a question to which the multiplicity of answers now comprises a genre.\u00a0 The answer to this question largely depends on how we define the relationships between digital humanities and the traditional humanities disciplines, as well as the emerging humanities disciplines and the natural sciences (including computational science).\u00a0 Exploratory rather than prescriptive in style, this workshop will ask participants to define Digital Humanities as it relates to their own scholarly identities, disciplines, sources and research methodologies.\u00a0 Theoretical debates and challenges in the field will be discussed throughout this workshop which concludes the Digital Scholarship and Skills workshop series for the 2017-2018 academic year.<\/p>\n
