Post by 9am, Monday, July 1<\/strong><\/p>\n Read \u201cReflections on a Movement<\/a>\u201d in Debates in the Digital Humanities 2016. We\u2019ve spent a lot of time in the first half of this program thinking about different tools and methods you can use in creating your projects. How can your project be transformative? How can this program transform to change the needs of digital scholars? We discussed during the first day our ideas of what is and isn\u2019t digital humanities\/scholarship. How have your own thoughts on this changed?<\/p>\n This summer you’ll put plenty of care into your public-facing digital project, but what about the research data informing your project?\u00a0 For both creators and consumers of scholarly works, research data is most effective when it is available, usable, and recoverable.\u00a0 Today we’ll talk about what research data is and different ways to manage it.\u00a0 We’ll also discuss a tool for cleaning certain types of data sets: OpenRefine.<\/p>\n In today\u2019s session on data visualization, we will talk through the process of creating a data-based graphic with particular emphasis on the interaction between visual design and quantitative communication. Rather than learning a single piece of software, we will explore design elements in the old-fashioned analog way \u2013 pencils, crayons, markers, and paper.\u00a0 The session will conclude with a demonstration of four common digital tools for developing data visualizations.<\/p>\n None!<\/p>\n Healy, Kieran. Data Visualization: A Practical Introduction (Chapter 1)<\/a>.<\/p>\n Lunch will be provided for the DSSFs.<\/p>\n Today, each DSSF will individually meet with the Digital Scholarship Committee for up to 30 minutes. we will go over the summer so far, check the status of your projects and research, and discuss next steps. If there\u2019s something that we haven\u2019t covered, or need to go over in more detail during the rest of the program, please bring your thoughts! Also, if you have thoughts on how to improve the program over the last half of the summer, please bring your ideas.<\/p>\n After our individual discussions on Thursday, we will gather as a group for a discussion about expectations and needs for the rest of the Fellowship.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Reflective Essay #4 Post by 9am, Monday, July 1 Read \u201cReflections on a Movement\u201d in Debates in the Digital Humanities 2016.
