Instructor: Dr Jennifer Edmond<\/strong><\/p>\n Date: 2 October 2019<\/strong><\/p>\n Time: 13:00-16:00<\/strong><\/p>\n In this workshop, Dr Edmond will be introduce key success factors for planning, seeking funding for, delivering and closing a digital project. \u00a0Participants will learn about best practices in, as well as pragmatic tips and tricks for, such key topics as: building collaborations, scoping and costing technical requirements, assuring access and rights to data, standards and common tools, funding schemes and their requirements, team management for successful delivery and end of project considerations, such as handover, what can be expected in terms of sustainability and how to prepare for efficient later migration. \u00a0In addition, researchers and practitioners from multiple disciplines and from the library will present examples of how they met the research and management challenges inherent in the delivery of digital projects.<\/p>\n Instructor: Dr Michelle Doran<\/strong><\/p>\n Date: 16 October 2019<\/strong><\/p>\n Time: 13:00-16:00<\/strong><\/p>\n This workshop is designed to introduce participants to the theories, practices and methods for encoding digital text in the Humanities.\u00a0 It provides an introduction to markup languages, XML, the infrastructure of the Text Encoding Initiative (TEI) Guidelines, and the encoding of common textual phenomena.\u00a0 Participants will have an opportunity to apply the basic elements of TEI-XML to encode a literary text using the oXygen XML Editor.\u00a0 The workshop combines lectures and discussion with practical hands-on exercises.\u00a0 No previous experience with digital text is assumed. Instructor: Dr Michelle Doran<\/strong><\/p>\n Date: 6 November 2019<\/strong><\/p>\n Time: 13:00-16:00<\/strong><\/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. \u00a0The 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). \u00a0Exploratory 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. Participants will also be introduced to the landscape of digital humanities at Trinity College Dublin. \u00a0Theoretical debates and challenges in the field will be discussed throughout this workshop which initiates the Digital Scholarship and Skills workshop series for the 2019-2020 academic year.<\/p>\n Instructor: Dr Owen Conlan<\/strong><\/p>\n Date: 4 December 2019<\/strong><\/p>\n Time: 13:00-16:00<\/strong><\/p>\n This workshop will introduce the use of Ontology to enable computers to appear more knowledgeable and to facilitate analysis of complex information. The workshop will introduce the theoretical underpinnings of Ontology, the current standards being employed in representing knowledge, such as OWL and RDF, and their role in exposing a web of connected information in the form of the Semantic Web. The workshop will also include hands-on experience in developing an Ontology and Knowledge Base using Stanford\u2019s Prot\u00e9g\u00e9 tool.<\/p>\n Instructors: Dr Frank Ludlow and Patrick Hayes<\/strong><\/p>\n Date: 11 December 2019<\/strong><\/p>\n Time: 13:00-16:00<\/strong><\/p>\n This workshop will begin by briefly illustrating the power of mapping to reveal relationships between seemingly disparate phenomena through space (and time), as well as highlighting common pitfalls and poor practices in mapping, both historical and contemporary. It will also showcase a range of digital mapping platforms \u2013 including a selection from the proliferation of online platforms that host and visualize spatial data of various forms \u2013 before examining the use of two common competing desktop platforms, Google Earth and ESRI\u2019s ArcGIS, and how the two can be made to speak to each other (or interoperate). The latter half of the workshop will be practical, with workshop participants engaging directly with ArcGIS software and being guided through fundamental approaches and techniques in historical GIS.<\/p>\n [ninja_form id=14]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Workshop One: Digital Humanities Project Funding and Management Instructor: Dr Jennifer Edmond Date: 2 October 2019 Time: 13:00-16:00 In this workshop, Dr Edmond will be introduce key success factors for planning, seeking funding for, delivering and closing a digital project. \u00a0Participants will learn about best practices in, as well as Read More …<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":1477,"parent":1878,"menu_order":1,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-1880","page","type-page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dh.tcd.ie\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1880","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dh.tcd.ie\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dh.tcd.ie\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dh.tcd.ie\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dh.tcd.ie\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1880"}],"version-history":[{"count":9,"href":"https:\/\/dh.tcd.ie\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1880\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1913,"href":"https:\/\/dh.tcd.ie\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1880\/revisions\/1913"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dh.tcd.ie\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1878"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dh.tcd.ie\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1477"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dh.tcd.ie\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1880"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}Workshop Two: Working with Texts in the Digital Age: Digital Scholarly Editing and TEI<\/h3>\n
