Requirements Engineering for the HumanitiesShawn Day
This workshop explores how requirements engineering can be employed by digital and non-digital humanities scholars (and others) to conceptualise and communicate a research project.
requirementsEngineeringAs the field of digital humanities has evolved, one of the biggest challenges has been getting the marrying technical expertise with humanities scholarly practice to successfully deliver sustainable and sound digital projects. At its core this is a communications exercise. However, to communicate effectively demands an ability to effectively translate, define and find clarity in your own mind.

LaTICE 2016: Learner-Centered Design of Computing Education for AllMark Guzdial
Computing education is in enormous demand. Many students (both children and adult) are realizing that they will need programming in the future. I argue that they are not all going to use programming in the same way and for the same purposes. What do we mean when we talk about teaching *everyone* to program? Should we have the same goals as computer science education for professional software developers? How do we design computing education that works for everyone? I propose the use of a learner-centered design approach to create computing education for a broad audience. I review the history of the idea that programming isn’t just for the professional software developer, and present case studies to explore the idea that computer science for everyone requires us to re-think how we teach and what we teach.

IMS LD has not achieved widespread adoption in education despite hopes that it would lead to advances. Interviews with IMS LD researchers identified several potential reasons for the lack of adoption, including that the conceptual ideas behind IMS LD may have had more impact than the specification itself. Additionally, institutions and teachers lacked awareness of IMS LD, and the complexity of both the specification and tools made adoption difficult for most educational contexts and settings.

This document discusses ways to improve how market research data and insights are communicated to clients. It argues that current methods, like lengthy PowerPoint presentations full of tables and charts, are not effective at engaging clients and helping them understand and act on the insights. The document advocates using more visuals, graphics, and storytelling to make research findings more interesting, memorable and actionable for clients. It also discusses how different people process information visually versus auditorily and suggests presentations should cater to both styles to better connect with all audience members.
The document discusses the benefits of integrating technology into math instruction. It argues that technology allows students to make and test conjectures and work at higher levels of abstraction. It notes that technology skills will be important for students' future careers. The document provides examples of how different technologies like podcasts, GPS, art software, and online collaboration can be used to enhance math learning and engage students. It emphasizes that technology should not replace the teacher but rather be used to enhance students' mathematical thinking.
1) The document summarizes a keynote speech given by Nat Torkington at LIANZA 2013 about the future of libraries and the changing role of librarians.
2) Torkington acknowledges that librarians face fears about technology replacing them but urges librarians to focus on their core purpose of helping people access and understand information.
3) He recommends that librarians take an approach of continual learning and adaptation, using techniques like teaching as inquiry to invent their future through cheap and quick experimentation with users.

Temple of Asclepius in Thrace. Excavation resultsKrassimira Luka
The temple and the sanctuary around were dedicated to Asklepios Zmidrenus. This name has been known since 1875 when an inscription dedicated to him was discovered in Rome. The inscription is dated in 227 AD and was left by soldiers originating from the city of Philippopolis (modern Plovdiv).

Smith "A Case Study in User Needs for Text Analysis"
1. A Case Study in User
Needs for Text Analysis

2. We are a not-for-profit with a mission to improve
access to knowledge and education for people
around the world. We believe education is key to
the well-being of individuals and society, and we
work to make it more effective and affordable.

3. Text analysis/mining at ITHAKA
3
JSTOR + Portico =
● ~40,000 journal runs
● ~300,000 books
Started in 2017, ramped up in 2019
4. Background Research
4
● Contextual inquiry-esque interviews with librarians, publishers, and
researchers
● Customer service conversations about JSTOR DfR (Data for
Research)
● Blogs from experts like Ted Underwood and Andrew Goldstone
6. Some Findings at This Stage
6
A range of abilities who work completely differently
● Experts who mine text with relative ease
● Learners who can mine text with, usually, 1-on-1 support
● Absolutely beginners who don’t know where to start
. . . and a tension between the groups
The Ivory Tower vs. the Silver Platter
7. Workflow - Sourcing
7
● “Really frustrating to get text ”
● “Data access is the most limiting thing ”
● “I don’t have time for JSTOR yet ”
● This step can take “more than a year ”
● Often not free - might need grant funding
8. Workflow - Structuring
8
● I’ve got an “unknown problem” with an “unknown solution ”
● “You’ve got to expect that manipulations will be required . . . always
bespoke”
● “It’s complicated”
● “There’s no single path”
● “We need interoperability and simplicity”
9. Workflow - Mining and Interpreting
9
In all the steps, it’s harder if you don’t speak this language and TDM so far
is Anglocentric
To publish, they may need preservation of original data and steps to
recreate results
Scholars don’t feel comfortable publishing without understanding, and
being able to defend, the algorithms used
10. Meanwhile, beginners . . .
10
● “Time and anxiety keep me from learning it ”
● “Faculty are too busy to do something new ”
● “DH is a club and it isn’t inclusive ”
● “The real loss isn’t the answers you don’t get, but the questions you
don’t even know to ask ”
● “You can only ask research questions you can imagine the answer to”
There are nice clickable GUI tools like Voyant for analysis, but only meets
a few needs
12. And teachers say . . .
12
● “For the disciplines I work in, people are very unfamiliar with numbers
and can’t even look at a spreadsheet ”
● “Most people give up before they start ”
● “It wasn’t a trainwreck. It was worse than that ”
● The naive view is to think this is going to be “like Tableau ”
When teaching someone, ask
1. Do they have the dataset in mind?
2. What’s their tech skill? (e.g. can they scrape)
3. What format do they want the data in?
4. What - if any - are their methods, tools, and research strategy?
14. We Learned
14
Sourcing and structuring are the hardest steps
Learning text analysis is hard and Python and R are key
Can humanists learn? Do they want to?
Hard to teach a text mining class at scale
Beginners don’t know what’s possible
15. The term digital humanities has been popular precisely because it
promises that all those projects can still be contained in the
humanities. The implicit pitch is something like this: ‘You won’t
need a whole statistics course. Come to our two-hour workshop on
topic models instead. You can always find a statistician to
collaborate with.’
I understand why digital humanists said that kind of thing eight
years ago. We didn’t want to frighten people away. If you write
‘Learn Another Discipline’ on your welcome mat, you may not get
many visitors. But a deceptively gentle welcome mat, followed
by a trapdoor, is not really more welcoming.
