Digital Humanities Pedagogy: Practices, Principles and Politics

Brett D. Hirsch (Hrsg.)
https://doi.org/10.11647/OBP.0024

Aca­d­e­m­ic insti­tu­tions are start­ing to rec­og­nize the grow­ing pub­lic inter­est in dig­i­tal human­i­ties research, and there is an increas­ing demand from stu­dents for for­mal train­ing in its meth­ods. Despite the pres­sure on prac­ti­tion­ers to devel­op inno­v­a­tive cours­es, schol­ar­ship in this area has tend­ed to focus on research meth­ods, the­o­ries and results rather than crit­i­cal ped­a­gogy and the actu­al prac­tice of teach­ing.

The essays in this col­lec­tion offer a time­ly inter­ven­tion in dig­i­tal human­i­ties schol­ar­ship, bring­ing togeth­er estab­lished and emerg­ing schol­ars from a vari­ety of human­i­ties dis­ci­plines across the world. The first sec­tion offers views on the prac­ti­cal real­i­ties of teach­ing dig­i­tal human­i­ties at under­grad­u­ate and grad­u­ate lev­els, pre­sent­ing case stud­ies and snap­shots of the authors’ expe­ri­ences along­side mod­els for future cours­es and reflec­tions on ped­a­gog­i­cal suc­cess­es and fail­ures. The next sec­tion pro­pos­es strate­gies for teach­ing foun­da­tion­al dig­i­tal human­i­ties meth­ods across a vari­ety of schol­ar­ly dis­ci­plines, and the book con­cludes with wider debates about the place of dig­i­tal human­i­ties in the acad­e­my, from the field’s cul­tur­al assump­tions and social oblig­a­tions to its polit­i­cal visions.

Dig­i­tal Human­i­ties Ped­a­gogy broad­ens the ways in which both schol­ars and prac­ti­tion­ers can think about this emerg­ing dis­ci­pline, ensur­ing its ongo­ing devel­op­ment, vital­i­ty and long-term sus­tain­abil­i­ty.

Intelligent Computing for Cultural Heritage: Global Achievements and China’s Innovations

Xiaoguang Wang, Mar­cia Lei Zeng, Jin Gao, Ke Zhao (Hrsg.)
https://doi.org/10.4324/9781032707211

This book offers a glob­al per­spec­tive on the lat­est advance­ments and trends in dig­i­tal human­i­ties and intel­li­gent com­put­ing of cul­tur­al her­itage, cov­er­ing both aca­d­e­m­ic research and case stud­ies with­in cul­tur­al insti­tu­tions.

This edit­ed vol­ume brings togeth­er views and prac­tices from dif­fer­ent regions, includ­ing Asia, Europe, Africa, North Amer­i­ca, and Aus­tralia. It offers inno­v­a­tive approach­es and case stud­ies relat­ed to human­i­ties data and dig­i­tal meth­ods, with a focus on dig­i­tal human­i­ties research and ped­a­gogy and cul­tur­al her­itage organ­i­sa­tion and preser­va­tion, in par­tic­u­lar the devel­op­ment of dig­i­tal knowl­edge repos­i­to­ries and meth­ods for dig­i­tal intel­li­gence in cul­tur­al her­itage. Each case study high­lights unique cul­tur­al char­ac­ter­is­tics and aca­d­e­m­ic his­to­ries, result­ing in diverse devel­op­ment pri­or­i­ties and the­mat­ic direc­tions. How­ev­er, this diver­si­ty can also lead to imbal­ances and iso­la­tion with­in the field. To gain a bet­ter under­stand­ing of the com­plex trends in the devel­op­ment of the dig­i­tal human­i­ties, this book offers valu­able insights from case stud­ies and research prac­tices, show­cas­ing glob­al con­tri­bu­tions from schol­ars and insti­tu­tions.

This title will appeal to schol­ars and stu­dents of dig­i­tal human­i­ties and infor­ma­tion sci­ence, par­tic­u­lar­ly those study­ing her­itage man­age­ment and intel­li­gent com­put­ing. Pro­fes­sion­als work­ing at the inter­sec­tion of tech­nol­o­gy and cul­tur­al her­itage will also find this book of great inter­est.

The 3 Dimensions of Digitalised Archaeology

This open access book aims to pro­vide an overview of state-of-the-art approach­es to 3D doc­u­men­ta­tion from a prac­ti­cal per­spec­tive and for­mu­late the most impor­tant areas for future devel­op­ments. Bring­ing togeth­er a wide range of case stud­ies, exam­ples of best prac­tice approach­es, work­flows, and first attempts to estab­lish sus­tain­able solu­tions to press­ing prob­lems, this book offers read­ers cur­rent prac­ti­cal advice on how to approach 3D archae­ol­o­gy and cul­tur­al her­itage.

Divid­ed into five parts, this book begins with an overview of 3D archae­ol­o­gy in its present state. It goes on to give insights into the devel­op­ment of the tech­nol­o­gy and recent cut­ting-edge appli­ca­tions. The next sec­tion iden­ti­fies cur­rent chal­lenges in 3D archae­ol­o­gy and then presents approach­es and solu­tions for data man­age­ment of a large num­ber of 3D objects and ways to ensure sus­tain­able solu­tions for the archiv­ing of the pro­duced data. This book will be of inter­est to researchers work­ing in the fields of archae­ol­o­gy, her­itage man­age­ment, and dig­i­tal human­i­ties in gen­er­al.
