SUMMARY:Introduction to TEI
DESCRIPTION:Description:This workshop offers a three-hour introduction to the eXtensible Markup Language of the Text Encoding Initiative (TEI-XML). We’ll learn why we mark up historical and literary texts and what we can do with encoded texts and data. We’ll cover the basics of XML terminology then discover how TEI documents are structured. We will dig into the “TEI Guidelines“; discover what elements\, attributes\, and values are available to us; and encode a short poem. As time permits\, we will look at some TEI projects hosted by HCMC. This workshop will prepare participants for work on HCMC projects and/or for a longer TEI course offered by the DH training network. \n\n\n\nFacilitator: Janelle Jenstad is a Professor in the Department of English and Academic Director of the Humanities Computing and Media Centre. She is the founder and director of the Map of Early Modern London and Linked Early Modern Drama Online; Co-Coordinating Editor of the New Internet Shakespeare Editions\, MoEML Mayoral Shows\, and Digital Renaissance Editions; and former member of the TEI Technical Council.

SUMMARY:DORA: Establishing & Maintaining Researcher Profiles
DESCRIPTION:The ability to effectively track and communicate your research impact is an essential skill for today’s researchers. Profile tools like ORCID\, Google Scholar\, and McMaster Experts provide valuable spaces to showcase your research outputs\, from publications and datasets to creative works\, while enabling efficient workflows for demonstrating your impact. This workshop will guide researchers through the process of creating and maintaining researcher profiles\, from initial setup to streamlined upkeep and generating basic impact reports. \n\n\n\nThis workshop is part of the DORA (San Francisco Declaration on Research Assessment) Workshop Series\, which explores practical approaches for showcasing and evaluating research beyond traditional metrics. Together\, these sessions focus on strengthening researcher visibility\, communicating research impact\, and recognizing the value of diverse scholarly contributions. \n\n\n\nThis session is ideal for researchers and graduate students interested in establishing an online presence\, increasing the visibility of their work\, and tracking the impact of their research. \n\n\n\nBy the end of this session\, participants will be able to: \n\n\n\n\nSelect the most appropriate research profile(s) for their needs.\n\n\n\nAutomate the initial population and maintenance of their research profile(s).\n\n\n\nGenerate basic research impact reports using profile data.\n\n\n\n\nDetails: Any preparatory work for the session can be found on its information page. This virtual workshop will be recorded and shared on the same page\, and discoverable via the Sherman Centre’s Online Learning Catalogue. \n\n\n\nCertificate Eligibility: This workshop is eligible for the Sherman Centre’s certificate program.

SUMMARY:Introduction to Computational Thinking (NL)
DESCRIPTION:Computational thinking is an essential skill for anyone wanting to learn to program computers and write code. This workshop takes you through the steps involved in computational thinking\, learning how to break down complex problems into smaller parts\, identify patterns\, and design logical solutions that a computer can execute. Through hands-on activities\, you practice techniques such as problem decomposition\, abstraction\, and algorithmic thinking. By the end of the session\, you have a stronger foundation for approaching programming tasks with confidence\, setting the stage for future coding and data-driven learning. This session is designed for beginners who are curious about programming but may not know where to start. It’s especially valuable for those exploring computer science or data science for the first time\, or for people in non-technical fields who want to build problem-solving and coding skills.

SUMMARY:Using Spreadsheets to Organize Data
DESCRIPTION:We use spreadsheet programs for entering\, organizing\, subsetting\, and sorting data\, for generating statistics and plots\, and more. This course shows you some best practices that will result in fewer mistakes\, greater reproducibility\, and easier use of other software tools with data exported from spreadsheets. Learn how to: decide whether a spreadsheet or a database is the more suitable tool for a project; reorganize and reformat a spreadsheet to avoid common problems; parse and format dates using spreadsheet functions; detect and correct some kinds of data errors in spreadsheets; export spreadsheet data in portable formats; and\, use a pivot table to summarize data in different ways. Participants should be comfortable using a computer and navigating files and folders. No prior programming experience is necessary.

SUMMARY:Data Cleaning with OpenRefine
DESCRIPTION:Researchers and librarians often deal with “messy” data. This could include inconsistent interview transcripts\, poorly formatted longitudinal datasets\, or standardizing names for an authority file. Preparing this data for analysis is a critical step that requires the same level of rigor and reproducibility as the analysis itself. This workshop introduces OpenRefine\, a powerful\, free\, and open-source tool for cleaning\, normalizing\, and transforming research data. participants work with a sample dataset to learn how to efficiently handle common data issues\, such as automating data standardization\, identifying clusters of similar entries\, and transforming complex strings into structured information without the need for advanced programming. Unlike manual editing in Excel\, OpenRefine records every step of your process\, ensuring your data cleaning is transparent and fully reproducible. Participants should be comfortable using a computer and have a general understanding of spreadsheets. No prior programming experience is necessary.
