Information

Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung

The aim of the seminar is to give students hands-on experience in the modelling of "real-world" humanities data via digital structures and technologies. We will begin with a review of the available data collection technologies (spreadsheets, relational databases, XML documents, RDF and graph databases) and their strengths and weaknesses for representation of complex data. This is accompanied by reading on the theoretical considerations around data modeling in the digital humanities. Based on these foundations, students will develop a data modelling project of their choice, relevant to their scholarly interests and with the intention (though not the obligation) of laying the foundation of their thesis project thereby.

Alongside the acquisition of hands-on data modelling skills, students will gain experience in seeking out relevant scholarly literature on a topic of their choosing and writing a critical response to this literature, which will be presented in class.

Art der Leistungskontrolle und erlaubte Hilfsmittel

Assessment will be based on participation (class discussions and preparation for same, via assigned readings), on the literature review, and especially on the seminar project, including presentation of its contents in class.
