Information
Aims, contents and method of the course
This Ringvorlesung will give the students a reasonably broad overview of the state of research and working methods in the Digital Humanities. A variety of speakers from different disciplines within the humanities - history, literature, museum studies, art history, archaeology, and more - will discuss what digital methods bring to their own fields, and what they understand the Digital Humanities actually to be.
Assessment and permitted materials
Assessment will be by written examination at the end of the course, consisting of free-form short-answer questions. Notes (either handwritten or printed) on paper are allowed; electronic devices are not.NEW: In this semester, bonus achievements will be available in the form of a question checking the student's comprehension of each lecture, to be answered before the end of the lecture period. Each correct bonus answer will be worth one point for the final grade, up to a maximum of ten points. The bonus questionnaires will be made available on Moodle over the course of the semester.
