Now and Low Code Approaches to the Digital Health Humanities

Now and Low Code Approaches to the Digital Health Humanities Online

This session will introduce attendees to the basics of digital health humanities methods by modelling computational approaches to research without the use of computers. In this hands-on session, participants will learn about important digital methods like GIS mapping, network analysis, and text analysis by engaging with prepared archival data. Rather than throwing these students into a class on how to use a digital tool like ArcGIS or Gephi, this workshop will first teach how digital humanists approach their research objects, and how their questions are based out of a humanist tradition.

 

Participants will learn:

The basics of a number of digital methods. How research questions can emerge from primary materials. How digital methods inform humanistic research questions, and how these questions critique those digital tools.
