Jeanine Scaramozzino – THATCamp AHA 2016 http://aha2016.thatcamp.org Just another THATCamp site Wed, 06 Jan 2016 18:34:50 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=4.9.12 Data Curation for the Humanist http://aha2016.thatcamp.org/2016/01/06/data-curation-for-the-humanist/ Wed, 06 Jan 2016 03:09:08 +0000 http://aha2016.thatcamp.org/?p=187

I am very interested in data curation skill sets required by the historian: What does data curation mean for the humanist? What do humanists need to know to work with data effectively? What skill sets are needed by the historian that analyzes and shares their data in digital form? What skill sets does the “average” historian need to have in dealing with data in digital formats (ex. .tiffs of rare texts from an archive, oral histories, pdfs of articles, video)? How do historians create effective research workflows? How does the historian effectively “archive” data in ways that can be shared in collaborations with other scholars? How do historians compartmentalize and standardize the collection of data for projects with their students?
