ACLC 2090 Digital Humanities (Winter 2024)

Digital Humanities involves the use of computational skills,programs and applications in the gathering of evidence and data, preserving and representation of texts and other artifacts, and the use of suchtools and techniques in the analysis of this evidence. Digital Humanities approaches can encompass highly sophisticated computational analysis of texts and visualization of data, or the use of Geographical Information Systems (GIS)tools to map and analyse spatial and geographical aspects of a topic. In this course students explore the tools, methods and analytical potentials associated with digital humanity studies through team-based digital humanities projects. Each year, these course outcomes will be achieved through the study of a specific thematically based subject.
