Overview
This unit examines the application of digital technologies (beyond textual analysis) in humanities research, covering the methods used to make data accessible, the analytic techniques which are thereby enabled, and the dissemination of research results through new modes of publication. The unit will be based on active learning and will enhance and consolidate students' academic and research abilities. It will also guide students to an understanding of the potential of applying new analytic tools to problems in various humanities disciplines and will stimulate team-work and collaboration, creating a pool of transferable skills that students can acquire and practice, and encouraging students to make productive links between theoretical ideas and practical applications.
