Digital humanities activity has been ongoing in Spain since the 1970s, including early collaborations and projects such as BOOST and Miguel de Cervantes Virtual Library. However, the field has seen a dramatic surge in activity and organizations since 2011. Some challenges to the development of digital humanities in Spain include its atomized state, challenges to interdisciplinary research recognition, and lack of clear career paths for early career researchers. Overall the document analyzes the history and current state of digital humanities in Spain.

"Publishing and Using Cultural Heritage Linked Data on the Semantic Web" by Eero Hyvönen. Aalto University, Finland.
"Publicar y utilizar la herencia cultural de los datos enlazados en la web semántica" por Eero Hyvönen. Universidad de Aalto, Finlandia.
For over a decade now Open Access (OA) has fundamentally changed the way scholarly publishing works. In the Digital Humanities (DH) the development of new types of scholarly publications in the form of digital projects presents an interesting scenario for the continuation of the OA movement. In this talk I will discuss how DH projects disrupt traditional scholarly communication and publishing systems, focusing on the role of authors, editors, publishers and libraries and how as digital humanists we contribute to shaping these new systems through the various roles we assume in DH project development. Additionally, I will discuss how these new DH publishing models may also serve to increase geographical and linguistic diversity in our field. Currently research and researchers from peripheral countries are sorely underrepresented in international scholarly publishing. Viewing DH as a transformative motor in academia gives us the opportunity to propose new models that adequately incorporate digital scholarly output on a global scale and increase the visibility of countries on the periphery little favoured by the traditional scholarly publishing model.
El acercamiento al estudio de los incunables se ha modificado notablemente durante los últimos años gracias a la aparición de las diferentes bases de datos, herramientas y recursos digitales. Este trabajo analiza la situación de las humanidades digitales en relación a dos materias que se cruzan en un punto: el estudio de la pervivencia de los clásicos y la evolución digital de los estudios de historia del libro. La metáfora de los "digital incunabula" para las primeras bibliotecas digitales, comparable a la nostalgia del antiguo manuscrito, nos sirve para hacer un recorrido sobre la creación de las primeras bibliotecas digitales y la evolución de las mismas, así como sus tendencias y evolución hasta sus últimas manifestaciones.

This presentation was given at the New Trends Seminars organised by the eHumanities Group in Amsterdam (March 13th, 2014).
The MA in Digital Humanities at King's College London looks at how we create and disseminate knowledge in an age where so much of what we do is mobile, networked and mediated by digital culture and technology
It gives a critical perspective on digital theory and practice in studying human culture, from the perspectives of academic scholarship, cultural heritage and the commercial world
We study the history and current state of the digital humanities, and their role in modelling, curating, analysing and interpreting digital representations of human culture in all its forms.

Cultural Heritage as a Mean of Social Inclusion: Work in Progress in the Cult...Museums Computer Group
Luigina Ciolfi, Danilo Giglitto and Eleanor Lockley, Sheffield Hallam University, and Abir Tobji and Katy Ashton, People’s History Museum
CultureLabs is an international project focusing on the role of culture and heritage in facilitating social inclusion. Wider and deeper community engagement in the heritage sector has been aided by digital technologies to engage communities who may feel disconnected from heritage institutions, such as migrants and refugees.
CultureLabs’ universities, heritage institutions, SMEs, and NGOs are developing a digital platform for facilitating participatory cultural projects with communities of migrants or refugees, and for sharing best practices.
Through pilots in three countries, the CultureLabs approach and technology will be developed and evaluated. The UK pilot is led by the People’s History Museum. As the UK approaches Brexit, PHM will engage communities in Greater Manchester to reflect on the theme of migration: they will meet, discuss, and explore what they have ‘More in Common’ and what it means to live in multicultural Britain. These events will lead to the co-production of an exhibition that reflects on the museum collection and the recently acquired Jo Cox memorial wall.
In the presentation, we will discuss how CultureLabs’ technology and pilots will create bridges between cultural institutions, migrants’ communities, and support communities to facilitate the design, execution and sharing of participatory projects for social inclusion.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

Isolated research projects, initiatives
CLiP 2006
The forty years that followed saw numerous isolated
research projects in Spain, including the Miguel
Cervantes Virtual Library, which frequently made
valuable contributions to research in what was then
called ‘humanities computing’, and which often had
close relations with Italian colleagues involved in
‘informatica umanistica’ and with other Europeans
initiatives such as the CLiP seminars. But as is so often
the case for non-Anglophone traditions, this rich
tradition in Spain is largely absent from historical
depictions of the field at an international level.

9. Tentative conclusions about DH research projects in Spain
• Delimited to large extent by traditional disciplinary boundaries
• Formal evaluation and credit mechanisms for digital outputs are
a particular challenge in Spain
• Collaborative research is not usually given appropriate credit
• Strong theoretical tradition grounded in conventional humanities
disciplines or information science
• But there is not the strong history of tool-building that is more
prevalent in other regional contexts.
• Digital innovations typically result from fragile and unstable
partnerships with computational science researchers offering
their time on a volunteer basis or from commercial
agreements with software companies.
10. Master in DH, UCLM (2005-2011)
http://linhd.uned.es/p/escuela-de-verano/
• Some success in informal training/workshop events
• But historically, there have been few experiences in
teaching digital humanities as a formal academic
subject
• Master in DH at UCLM (2005-2011) was crucial in
establishing DH as a subject of study in Spain

from nine different countries and covering a wide range of subject matter, including
lexicology, digital libraries, art history, e-learning, digital edition and crowdsourcing.
HDH2013 represented a first response to what Sagrario López Poza has identified as
a “clear interest of an increasing number of researchers who are disoriented and
isolated and wish to create areas of confluence” (López Poza ‘Humanidades digitales
hispánicas’ in Ciencuentenario de la AIH, forthcoming), a group which has been
visibly galvanized by ongoing Global Outlook debates in the DH

• Identify of field
• Cross-channel communication
• Recognition for interdisciplinary research
• Peer recognition at disciplinary level
• Formal evaluation and credit
• Opportunities for early career researchers
• Career paths
Challenges for DH in Spain
21. • Which parameters to use when examining given regional/linguistic
group?
– “How many people self-identify with DH in some way?”
– “How many people do we identify with DH by some pre-agreed
metric?”
– “How many people are actively involved in building digital models of
humanities research?”
– “How many people are involved in reflective research on the impact of
technology on human scholarship?”
– “How many people are involved in any kind of digital scholarship?”
– Etc.
• Analysis of regional groups typically has overlapping, but non-
identical objectives:
– To research DH as a particular domain of scholarly activity
– To build a digital humanities community
– To build a DH research field with appropriate academic recognition
– To improve visibility for particular geographic and linguistic groups
within the field as a whole and address imbalance
