Information

Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung

This course is meant to introduce the critical and technical principles for doing Digital Humanities in Korean Studies. Digital Humanities work is done at the intersection of computational methods and humanistic research. Digital Humanities allow students to explore how digital technologies enhance our understanding of history, literature, philosophy, religion, other cultures, and ourselves. Through the use and development of critical thinking skills, students will learn how to engage with digital media, and they will be introduced to digital techniques and tools for research, analysis, and publication. Students will come to understand what the Humanities are (both traditional and digital) and how humanities disciplines are transformed into Digital Humanities projects those are specifically aimed at researching topics relevant to Korean Studies.
Each student will gain experience with hands-on, creative digital work, and will have the opportunity to build digital projects solo or in a paired/remote setting. The projects will allow students to speak to their interests in Korean Studies by experimenting with text analysis, mapping, timelines, and networks.

Course Objectives
By the end of this course, students will be able to:

● Get acquainted with the different Digital Humanities methods and tools that are used and how these are applicable to Korean Studies-related projects.
● Gain knowledge about the wealth of open access data available to researchers in Korean Studies.
● Explore various theoretical and applied perspectives on the Digital Humanities.
● Develop familiarity with a wide range of Digital Humanities projects, methods, and
tools.
● Build skills in planning, developing, and evaluating Digital Humanities projects.
● Critically discuss Digital Humanities in light of current theories and methods.
● Explain how Digital Humanities methods and practices are applied in different
disciplines and for Korean Studies-related topic specifically.
● Conduct basic Digital Humanities research and research-supporting activities.
● Facilitate Digital Humanities work at various levels and stages.

Art der Leistungskontrolle und erlaubte Hilfsmittel

● Attendance & In-ClassParticipation (10 Points)
You are required to prepare all assigned Required Reading and materials for scheduled
class discussions and practicums. You are also expected to actively participate in all class discussions, ask intelligent questions, and offer substantive and informed comments on any of your colleagues’ in-class presentations. You will be graded on your performance during the hands-on sessions and practicums.

● Presentations (20 Points)
o Project Proposal Presentation - Single page description of the research question
being posed, ideas for where data to analyze will come from, proposed methods for analysis, and proposed final deliverable. Also specify the role of each group member will fulfill. (May 4, 2023)

o Final Project Presentation - Presentation of the final project, including methodology. (June 29, 2023)

● Response Papers/Assignments (20 Points)
You are expected to write short (one page) writing assignments every three weeks (4 total,
5 Points per post). They will be either reflective pieces on a conceptual issue that has arisen in class or a report or review about a project or experiment carried out. You can let yourself be guided by the assignments and questions for inspiration as well.

● Assessment of DH Project (10 Points)
Select a DH project created by one of the groups in class during the semester and explore
its goals, what type of data was used, how that data was found and/or transformed, what technologies were used, and why. Include your own analysis of how successful you think the project is in achieving its aims, and why or why not. Write a short (one to two page) report on your findings.

● Collaborative DH Mini-Project (40 Points)
Students may work individually or collectively; if collectively, each member must email
me a short statement (max 500 words), cc-ed to all other group members, describing
their individual contributions to the project.
Students will examine a research question using Digital Humanities methods. Each group will be tasked with dividing duties according to each group member’s strengths, selecting appropriate data and tools to conduct the research, and determining the deliverable type (e.g. multimedia website, map, network, etc.).
At the end of the semester students will submit their project.
