SUMMARY:Working with Data: From Formats to Ethics
DESCRIPTION:This workshop offers a space for participants to develop their data literacies and experiment with the role of humanistic inquiry in data work\, and vice versa. We’ll start with a primer on data types\, formats\, and modeling\, bringing into focus information genres that we encounter every day but often take for granted (like tables and lists). Equipped with the basics of data structures\, we’ll spend the second half of our session cultivating care-informed data practices. We’ll explore what this year’s theme — “Care and Repair” — means for how we “do” data work\, including humanities data management and data-driven research and pedagogy. Participants will learn about the affordances and critiques of “restorative” data approaches that seek to “fill” gaps caused by the systematic omission and erasure of marginalized peoples. We’ll discuss frameworks and strategies that have emerged from data feminism\, digital justice\, and critical data studies in order to think intentionally about the role of data in our scholarship and teaching. This workshop is designed for humanities scholars and students who are interested in pursuing data-driven work and who want to develop critical and ethical — rather than purely instrumental — data practices\, though folks from all disciplines are welcome!

SUMMARY:Building a Commons for Open Learning with Commons In A Box OpenLab
DESCRIPTION:Commons In A Box OpenLab is free\, open-source software that enables anyone to create a commons space specifically designed for open learning\, where students\, faculty\, and staff can collaborate across disciplinary boundaries and share their work openly with one another and the world. \nThe project brings together Commons In A Box\, the software that powers NYCDH (CBOX\, https://commonsinabox.org/)\, and City Tech’s OpenLab platform for teaching\, learning\, and collaboration (https://openlab.citytech.cuny.edu/). The result is a teaching-focused version of CBOX that provides a powerful and flexible alternative to costly proprietary systems and is already being adopted at CUNY and beyond. \nWe will introduce CBOX OpenLab and demonstrate its features and functionality\, using examples from City Tech’s OpenLab and BMCC’s installation of the software (https://openlab.bmcc.cuny.edu/). Then we will discuss how you might use (or are already using) CBOX OpenLab\, and the benefits and challenges of open learning.

SUMMARY:Build Your Own Text-as-Data Corpus: A Print-to-Bytes Primer
DESCRIPTION:This hands-on workshop will teach participants how to construct their own digital text corpus for conducting humanities data analysis. We’ll cover simple tools for turning printed texts in a variety of languages into computer-readable files\, the use of Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software\, and consider helpful tools for post-process correction of digitized texts. We’ll also look at open-access text-as-data sources available over simple web-browser-based API calls. The workshop is geared toward digital humanists needing to assemble text data that are not yet compiled or in computer readable form for analysis\, and who are looking for an introduction to the workflows and software suited to building the research materials needed for analysis. We’ll learn how to use Tesseract\, an open-source OCR software\, consider the anatomy of an HOCR file (the output of OCR efforts)\, and deploy techniques for extracting structured information from a page. \nComputer with a text editor installed such as BBEdit\, TextWrangler\, Atom\, Notepad++ or the like; administrator access to install open-source software (Tesseract).

SUMMARY:Tips and Strategies for Enacting Interdisciplinary Scholarship and Working Collaboratively
DESCRIPTION:Within the DH community\, we often talk about interdisciplinarity and collaboration as a given. But in reality\, there remain very real obstacles to working in these ways. Institutional resistance\, orthodoxy in one’s field\, or a lack of visible partners can all make it very difficult to find the proper environment to do interdisciplinary or collaborative work. In this session\, we hope to gather people from both sides of the coin\, those who’ve been able to find collaborations and those for whom it has been a struggle. We will share strategies and stories and discuss how along with administrative\, disciplinary\, and technical obstacles\, these environments can be both enabled and hindered by personalities and dispositions towards working together and negotiating how to manage the reins of control.

SUMMARY:Accessible Design
DESCRIPTION:Over the last thirty years\, the internet has become of vital importance to daily life\, especially in the time of the COVID-19 pandemic when nearly all interactions for non-essential workers have gone online. Nevertheless\, accessibility on the internet has often remained a low priority\, making this indispensable resource difficult to use for many people. Participants in this workshop will learn how to combat this problem by being proactive in their own design. We will discuss why accessibility is important\, best practices for designing an accessible site or visualization\, and some of the follies of “universal design.” We will conclude with some hands-on practice with accessibility checkers that participants can use for their own work.

SUMMARY:Using Google Sheets to Create\, Organize and Explore Your Humanities Data
DESCRIPTION:Google Sheets is a web-based spreadsheet program\, equivalent in some ways to Microsoft Excel\, with a wide array of features and uses. For people who would like to embark on a digital humanities project\, it is one of many options for organizing data. \nThis workshop is aimed at total beginners and will introduce a few ways to facilitate automatic data entry\, organization\, and visualization on Google Sheets. The skills presented in this workshop are suitable for anyone working with spreadsheets\, and apply for any project in which there is repeated information (names\, places\, objects\, dates). We will learn to sort and filter data\, auto-populate cells\, and organize sheets visually. \nThe workshop is in three parts: first\, an overview of Google Sheets and potential use cases (e.g.\, art exhibitions over time\, books authored by a publishing house); second\, a detailed explanation of some of Google Sheets’ features (Code Tables\, Data Validation\, Conditional Formatting\, VLookup\, Column Stats and Filters\, and Pivot Tables); and third\, a walkthrough of these tools using a sample data set. Participants can follow along with the walkthrough by using their own data or the sample set provided. \nPrerequisites: Basic familiarity with Google Sheets or Excel.\nThe course will be carried out using Google Sheets. You will be added to a shared sheet using the email address that you provide for the registration\, so a Google account is required. Participants can also observe the process without using the Sheets and can use their own data set to practice the skills learned.

SUMMARY:Bringing Eileen Online: Reimagining Bard Graduate Center's Eileen Gray Exhibition during the Pandemic
DESCRIPTION:When Covid-19 hit New York City in March\, Bard Graduate Center was forced to close the Eileen Gray exhibition that had opened to the public just two weeks earlier. With no timeline for reopening and limited access to the gallery space\, the curatorial staff coordinated with the Director of DH/DX (Digital Humanities and Exhibitions) to devise a plan to bring the exhibition to life online. These efforts resulted in an interactive exhibition featured in the New York Times that reimagined the objects and research on display in the gallery and aimed at reaching a global audience during the pandemic.    \nEileen Gray Online Exhibition \nThis demo will explore the challenges involved in transferring the objects and spirit of a physical exhibition online. It will also reveal some of the tools BGC used to create interactive experiences for the project and outline the ways in which this endeavor provided a new path forward for future exhibitions at the institution. \nThis demo is hosted by:\nEmma Cormack: Associate Curator at Bard Graduate Center\nJesse Merandy: Director of Digital Humanities and Digital Exhibitions at Bard Graduate Center

SUMMARY:Providing and Managing a Diverse and Accessible Classroom/Community Through Technological Means
DESCRIPTION:Although distanced learning can have many potential benefits\, including making it easier for students to schedule classes around their other life commitments\, we’ve seen that this format can also highlight and widen learning and accessibility gaps. In this session\, we’ll discuss strategies for ensuring our (virtual and tech-enhanced) classrooms are equitable\, ethical\, and promote community building. We will brainstorm resources and share experiences regarding how to support students’ self-discovery on issues of privacy\, decolonization\, and accessibility.
