SUMMARY:La création de cartes interactives avec uMap
DESCRIPTION:24 March 2026 \n\n\n\nL’application en ligne uMap permet de créer et de diffuser des cartes géographiques personnalisées\, interactives et collaboratives. uMap est utile pour les chercheurs et étudiants universitaires\, car l’application permet de présenter des données sur une carte en ligne et de collaborer à plusieurs personnes sur une même carte\, offrant ainsi une plateforme conviviale pour la visualisation et la communication efficace des informations géospatiales. \n\n\n\nLa première partie de l’atelier propose un tour d’horizon des principales fonctionnalités de uMap et des étapes nécessaires pour vous lancer dans la création de votre première carte géographique interactive. Dans la deuxième partie de l’atelier\, notre équipe sera là pour vous aider à créer votre première carte en ligne adaptée selon vos champs d’intérêts et besoins. \n\n\n\n[Cette formation aura lieu au Laboratoire de données et humanités numériques de la bibliothèque centrale\, local A-M203] \n\n\n\nAtelier présenté et animé par Katerine Grandmont \n\n\n\nKaterine Grandmont occupe le poste de technicienne en cartographie à la Cartothèque de l’UQAM. Elle détient une maitrise en géographie et a travaillé de nombreuses années dans le domaine de la recherche nordique\, notamment à la cartographie des risques en milieux de pergélisol. Elle offre du soutien à la communauté universitaire pour l’utilisation d’outils et logiciels de cartographie et d’analyse spatiale et l’utilisation des données géospatiales.

SUMMARY:Students deserve Research Data Management! Teaching with the RDM Educators Kit
DESCRIPTION:Date: May 5 2026 \n\n\n\nYour students deserve to know about Research Data Management! In this brand-new “train the trainer” session for educators\, RDM Services will prepare you to prepare your graduate and undergraduate students for increasing grant and publisher requirements for Data Management Plans and Data Deposit. \n\n\n\n“Do my students even have data to manage?” you might ask. Au contraire mon capitane\, they do! If research involves biological samples or survey results\, you may feel confident you’re working with research data. But what if your research is rooted in creative practice? What if you’re looking for the specific heat of a material under a magnetic field? Data have many formats: text\, numbers\, images\, recordings\, software\, algorithms\, workflows. Research Data Management is caring for data through the research lifecycle: planning to archiving. \n\n\n\nWe’ll discuss integrating our new RDM Educators Kit in the classroom\, from 2-minute slide inserts to RDM class visits to multi-class Data Management Plan creation as an “open hand of cards.” We’ll end with a working session to imagine challenges and possibilities! \n\n\n\nParticipants will learn to: \n\n\n\n\nSummarize RDM best practices and what Data Management Plans and Data Deposit look like in your field\n\n\n\nLocate available tools from RDM Services\n\n\n\nPrepare to implement Research Data Management tools in the classroom.\n\n\n\n\nThis session is great for educators from faculty to sessional instructors to graduate students ready to bring RDM into their classrooms! \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\nFacilitator Bio:  \n\n\n\nIsaac Pratt (he/him) is a research scientist by training and has a PhD in Anatomy & Cell Biology.

SUMMARY:Research Data Management for Humanities Researchers
DESCRIPTION:Dates: May 5th 2026 to May 8th 2026 \n\n\n\nInstructors:Shahira Khair\, University of Victoria LibrariesSandra Sawchuck\, Mount Saint Vincent Libraries \n\n\n\n\nThis intensive four-day hands-on workshop is designed for humanities researchers who want to actively apply best practices in research data management in their own research projects. Recognizing the unique and diverse nature of humanities data—from digitized texts and images\, to audio recordings and cultural artifacts—the workshop provides practical\, actionable strategies across the entire research data lifecycle\, from initial planning to long-term preservation and reuse.  \n\n\n\nThis is a “bring your own data” workshop! Participants should arrive with the research materials they are seeking help in managing. This can be from an existing project or one you are just embarking on! (And we can point you in some directions if you are looking for data!) \n\n\n\nParticipants will gain proficiency in developing comprehensive Data Management Plans (DMPs)\, essential for navigating funder requirements (e.g. SSHRC\, NEH) and streamlining project workflows. Through practical exercises\, the curriculum emphasizes effective organization and documentation of research materials\, use of software for analysis and automation\, and the critical role of metadata in ensuring data discoverability and long-term reusability. Sessions will cover secure storage solutions and long-term preservation techniques to safeguard valuable research materials. \n\n\n\nA significant focus is placed on the ethical dimensions inherent in many research areas in the humanities\, addressing sensitive data\, informed consent\, use of AI\, and the crucial principles of cultural sensitivity and Indigenous data sovereignty. The workshop also guides researchers through strategic data sharing by exploring appropriate repositories (disciplinary and generalist)\, applying robust curation practices\, and navigating licensing and persistent identifiers to maximize research impact and compliance with evolving funder and publisher requirements. Upon completion\, attendees will be empowered to confidently manage\, preserve\, and ethically share their research\, enhancing the integrity\, accessibility\, and scholarly impact of their work. \n\n\n\n\nMax Participants: 25

SUMMARY:Introduction to Computational Text Analysis (DHSI 2026)
DESCRIPTION:Description \n\n\n\nComputational text analysis offers powerful tools to explore patterns of style\, meaning\, and theme in large bodies of text. This intensive\, intermediate-level course provides hands-on training in three foundational methods widely used in digital humanities and computational linguistics. Designed to build a solid foundation\, the course empowers participants to work independently and develop their skills confidently beyond the classroom. \n\n\n\nThe course introduces three key digital methods of text analysis that can be applied to virtually any type of text. They are stylometry\, word embeddings\, and topic modeling. A sample corpus will be provided for the exercises\, but the participants are also encouraged to bring their own corpora they would like to work on. The methods will be used to discuss authorship\, literary style\, chronology\, themes of texts\, semantics\, cultural stereotypes\, and their relation to quantifiable measures. \n\n\n\nThe first method to be explored in depth is stylometry\, a technique which measures textual similarity based on word or n-gram frequencies. While best known for its success in authorship attribution\, stylometry is also widely used to analyze stylistic trends\, thematic structures\, and translator-specific features. By the end of this module\, participants will be able to conduct stylometric analyses using the stylo package in R\, generate visualizations of their results\, and build network diagrams highlighting similarities across a corpus. They will also learn how to compare two distinct corpora and detect segments of text likely written by different authors. \n\n\n\nThe second method covered in the course is word embeddings\, a powerful technique grounded in distributional semantics\, which represents words as vectors in a multidimensional space. This approach allows for the analysis of meaning\, context\, and relationships between words\, uncovering connotations\, cultural associations\, and even implicit biases or stereotypes present within a given text corpus. \n\n\n\nThe third and final core method covered in the course is topic modeling\, a technique used to discover recurring patterns across collections of texts. Topics are clusters of words which frequently co-occur within the corpus\, based on the assumption that textual proximity reflects underlying semantic relationships. It can be used for text classification\, but also for identifying quantifiable features of literary style. The participants will learn how to extract topics from a corpus\, identify the most prominent ones in individual texts\, and track how topic distributions change across different sections of a single work. \n\n\n\nIn addition\, the course will also introduce some more basic\, less complex methods\, such as concordance analysis and measures of concordance strength\, along with various online tools that can also support computational text analysis. Some basic key concepts of machine learning will also be explained to help the participants understand how certain linguistic models work. \n\n\n\nThe software used for the course can be easily installed on the participants’ computers. Strong coding skills are not required. However\, basic programming knowledge will be helpful to customize the scripts provided for the participants’ own purposes. Basic applications of the presented methods presented during the course will allow the participants to develop tailored solutions for their own research or digital humanities projects. \n\n\n\nInstructor(s)\n\n\n\nWojciech Łukasik is a digital humanist affiliated with the Center for Quantitative Research in Political Science at the Jagiellonian University\, the Jagiellonian Centre for Digital Humanities\, and the Department of Polish Studies. He also cooperates with the Institute of Polish Language at the Polish Academy of Sciences\, where he obtained his PhD in linguistics. In his thesis\, he applied digital methods including corpus analysis\, stylometry\, and topic modeling to a corpus of Young Poland literature. His work also involves the digitization of historical dictionaries and data processing for digital scholarly editions. \n\n\n\nJacek Bąkowski is a researcher at the Institute of Polish Language\, Polish Academy of Sciences\, with an academic background in mathematics\, computer science\, and linguistics. His research focuses primarily on semantic similarity measures\, distributional semantics\, and machine learning techniques applied to natural language processing\, particularly in the context of South Asian languages. He has also worked on stylometry\, lexical analysis\, and authorship attribution in Sanskrit texts. \n\n\n\nClick here for an example of previous syllabus and course material (2025)

SUMMARY:[Foundations] Introduction to Digital Approaches in Music Research (DHSI 2026)
DESCRIPTION:Description \n\n\n\nThis course introduces current practices in encoding\, analysing and presenting music information. It will begin by introducing the philosophy\, theory\, and practicalities behind encoding symbolic music notation and will then explore pathways for analyzing and publishing that encoded data. Participants should have a basic knowledge of how to read music\, but no prior experience with coding or XML is assumed. \n\n\n\nInstructor(s)\n\n\n\nTimothy Duguid is senior lecturer in Digital Humanities and Information Studies at the University of Glasgow. His current research interests lie in the intersection between digital humanities and historical musicology. In particular\, he is focused discoverability for digital research outputs in music\, working on a virtual research environment called Music Scholarship Online (MuSO) that will draw together published scholarship\, digitized archival materials\, and born-digital scholarship into a single online portal. He is also working on a digital edition of the Scottish metrical psalms dating from 1564 to 1640. In addition to providing musical editions of each of the psalm tunes within the psalter\, it will provide\, for the first time\, the Scots transliterations along the anglophone psalm texts. He holds a Ph.D. in music history from the University of Edinburgh in the area of early modern English and Scottish liturgical music\, with particular focus on metrical psalmody. His work on Reformation history and early modern music resulted in the creation of a performing edition of the Wode Psalter\, an early modern music collection\, and he was associate editor for the digital project “Letters in Exile: Documents from the Marian Exile.”

SUMMARY:Teaching AI Literacy (DHSI 2026)
DESCRIPTION:Description \n\n\n\nGenerative AI has disrupted higher ed\, and many instructors feel caught between over-hyped potential and the realities of the classroom. Faculty everywhere are trying to figure out how to re-imagine their assignments\, assessments\, courses\, and even degree programs. In this course\, we’ll explore some of the ways that we can adapt to the changing landscape of higher ed. The approach takes “critical AI literacy” as the focus (with Goodlad\, Raley\, and others as exemplars). Participants will engage with five short units (supported by scholarly articles\, podcasts\, whitepapers\, blogs\, etc). In the tradition of DHSI\, the course will move theory into practice every day\, shifting from presentation and discussion to hands-on activities\, always keeping pedagogy in mind\, including: student engagement\, academic integrity\, mitigating cognitive offloading\, and enhancing critical thinking. Content supports a technoskeptical approach to generative AI\, and will hold space for faculty who don’t want to assign AI apps. \n\n\n\nThis course will be optimal for university instructors who want to adapt their pedagogical approaches for AI-impacted classrooms; and for librarians who want to learn about emerging AI literacies and AI-responsive instructional practices to share with instructors and students. \n\n\n\nInstructor(s)\n\n\n\nD.J. Hopkins is a Professor at San Diego State University\, where he is a Director of the Center for Teaching and Learning. Hopkins is a scholar whose research interests include Shakespeare in Performance (including adaptations for film\, theatre\, and VR) and an academic administrator who has held leadership positions on campus and in the field. His monograph Sleep No More and the Discourses of Shakespeare Performance (Feb. 2024) is available from Cambridge University Press. In 2016\, his co-edited Performance and the City collections (Palgrave 2009\, 2012) received the Award for Excellence in Editing from the Association for Theatre in Higher Education (ATHE).

SUMMARY:Spatial Visualization in/for Digital Humanities Research (DHSI 2026)
DESCRIPTION:Description \n\n\n\nThis course is a gentle introduction to mapping and spatial visualization for storytelling in the digital humanities. Rather than focusing on a particular software or technical workflow\, we will introduce a variety of mapping tools while evaluating respective affordances and limitations. Short lectures and demonstrations will be paired with hands-on exercises and collaborative problem solving\, as well as discussions of emerging research areas in cartography and digital mapping. By the end of this course\, participants will be aware of the breadth of maps and spatial visualizations possible in digital humanities work\, understand their applicability\, and have practical experience making them. The pacing and structure of this course is geared towards an audience of geospatial novices to intermediate mappers. While this course will involve some basic coding\, no previous coding experience is required. \n\n\n\nInstructor(s)\n\n\n\nAlex Alisauskas is a Humanities and Social Sciences Librarian (Maps/Geospatial Data) at the University of British Columbia Library where she supports researchers in History\, Central\, Eastern and Northern European Studies\, and Geography\, as well as researchers hoping to incorporate maps\, spatial methods\, and GIS tools in their research. She holds a PhD in Visual and Cultural Studies\, and prior to becoming a librarian\, she was a professor in art history and liberal studies and conducted research on contemporary art practices. Her current research explores artistic uses of archives\, mental health in libraries\, and inclusive pedagogical practices in digital scholarship. \n\n\n\nLily Demet is a PhD student in Geography at the University of British Columbia studying everyday spatial practices of navigating the city. Lily’s recent projects include “Making space for deep mapping: rendering theory as practice”\, a research-creation master’s thesis in which they theorized through the digital construction of a website while walking Vancouver. Lily is also an artist and freelance cartographer\, and teaches mapping and GIS workshops at UBC Library’s Research Commons.

SUMMARY:Powering up Digital Editorial Production with LEAF Commons Tools (DHSI 2026)
DESCRIPTION:Description \n\n\n\nIn this hands-on course participants will learn how to develop and produce a data-rich textual edition using the open-source web-based Linked Editing Academic Framework (LEAF) Commons suite of tools: LEAF-Writer\, NERVE\, and the Dynamic Table of Contexts. Sessions will involve digital editorial principles and processes. We will concentrate on the editorial workflow (transformation of existing digital images or documents\, semantic encoding\, linked data annotation generation\, publication) and develop mechanisms for effective collaboration and documentation. Learning experiences will be as responsive as possible to participants’ ongoing work – editors with projects anywhere along the production continuum are welcome. By the end of the course participants should have developed skills to make their digital edition processes more efficient\, and where tools can (and cannot) aid them in undertaking their own projects. \n\n\n\nInstructor(s)\n\n\n\nDiane Jakacki is Digital Scholarship Coordinator and Associate Faculty in Comparative & Digital Humanities at Bucknell University. Interests included British performance history\, digital scholarly production\, and DH pedagogy. She is a co-lead of LEAF (the Linked Editing Academic Framework).

Formé en études classiques\, il s’intéresse à la modélisation des pratiques éditoriales savantes\, en particulier dans le champ de la philologie grecque. Ses recherches portent sur l’édition critique numérique\, la représentation de la variation textuelle et la structuration des données littéraires. Il explore l’usage de méthodes computationnelles\, notamment l’apprentissage automatique\, pour analyser\, enrichir et reconfigurer les formes d’édition et de lecture des corpus anciens. \n\n\n\nPhilosophe et spécialiste d’édition numérique\, Marcello Vitali-Rosati est professeur au département des littératures de langue française de l’Université de Montréal\, titulaire de la Chaire de recherche du Canada sur les écritures numériques et de la Chaire d’excellence en édition numérique à l’Université de Rouen. Il développe une réflexion philosophique sur ce que devient le monde à l’ère des technologies numériques. À partir de l’étude et de la pratique du code\, il analyse la manière dont les algorithmes\, les formats\, les logiciels et les plateformes redéfinissent les notions d’humain\, d’identité\, de connaissance ou de littérature. Contributeur actif à la théorie de l’éditorialisation\, il travaille à la conception de nouvelles formes de production et de diffusion du savoir ainsi qu’à l’élaboration de chaînes éditoriales innovantes. Il est l’auteur de nombreux articles et monographies et exerce également une activité d’éditeur en tant que directeur de la revue Sens public et co-directeur de la collection “Parcours Numériques” aux Presses de l’Université de Montréal. Il est à la tête de plusieurs projets en humanités numériques\, particulièrement dans le domaine de l’édition savante: des plateformes d’édition de revues et de monographies enrichies\, de l’éditeur de texte Stylo ainsi que d’une plateforme d’édition collaborative de l’Anthologie Grecque.

SUMMARY:Introduction to Web Archiving (DHSI 2026)
DESCRIPTION:Description \n\n\n\nThis introductory course seeks to provide participants with an understanding of how to access\, create\, and use web archives for research and preservation purposes. Web archiving is the process of collecting web resources in an archival format and making them available for access. These archives are increasingly used to preserve ephemeral information online\, and to research past uses of the web and how they reflect or influence broader social and cultural processes. \n\n\n\nThe course will provide an overview of what web archiving is and why it is important\, describe the current tools for accessing and creating web archives\, explore how they can be used for research\, and discuss the political and ethical issues that arise when archiving the web. The course also has a practical component for participants to create a collection of archived websites of their interest and to draft an archival policy for the websites they will collect. This course can be of interest to students\, researchers\, and librarians interested in researching online spaces and preserving ephemeral information shared on the web. \n\n\n\nInstructor(s)\n\n\n\nAlan Colin-Arce is a researcher at the University of Victoria’s Electronic Textual Culture Lab. His research focuses on the influence of language and geography in knowledge production\, especially in web archives and scholarly communication. He has contributed to several multilingual digital humanities projects\, including the Humanities and Social Sciences Commons\, Huellas Incómodas/Uncomfortable Footprints\, and Latin American Women’s Rights Movements: Tracing Online Presence through Language\, Time and Space.
