SUMMARY:Introduction to the Unix Shell
DESCRIPTION:Date: September 15th 2026 \n\n\n\nIntroduction to the Unix Shell\n\n\n\nThis workshop will introduce the Unix shell\, a powerful way to communicate with your computer more directly through a command line interface. There are many ways to interact with a computer. Most of the time we click on things and select options with a cursor through a graphical user interface (GUI). A command line is exactly what it sounds like\, a way of writing commands to your computer line by line and is incredibly powerful. In this workshop we will show you how to navigate through different parts of your system and introduce some of the most useful commands to be aware of. \n\n\n\nNo previous experience with the command line is required. This workshop is for beginners. \n\n\n\nPre-workshop setup \n\n\n\nPlease have a laptop ready for this workshop. We will be using the Unix shell for most of the workshop. If you have a Mac or a Linux laptop you don’t need to install or enable anything. If you are using a Windows10 PC you will need to turn on the “Windows Subsystem for Linux” setting as per these instructions.  \n\n\n\nThis workshop is part of the Core Skills series.  \n\n\n\nPresenter(s):Kamal Abou Mikhael

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. For more information\, visit scds.ca/certificate-program. It is also eligible for the Canadian Certificate for Digital Humanities.

SUMMARY:Advanced Unix Shell usage
DESCRIPTION:September 29th 2026 \n\n\n\nAre you looking to get more out of the Unix command-line shell and increase your productivity in the terminal? Then this workshop is for you! Moving beyond basic commands\, this hands-on\, interactive workshop will help you understand the grammar of shell commands\, and will show you how to use shell tools to quickly search through and manipulate large data sets\, create advanced pipelines using composable Unix commands\, and even view images and listen to music right from the command-line. After this workshop\, attendees will be able to break down complex workflows into manageable components and identify the most appropriate tool for each step\, while becoming more at home in the terminal as an everyday workspace. \n\n\n\nRequirements: Participants will need access to a Bash shell environment and some experience with basic shell usage. In addition\, the following programs will be used during the workshop\, and should be installed in advance if not already present on your system: \n\n\n\n– curl– wget– mc– mplayer– ffmpeg– imagemagick \n\n\n\nThis workshop is part of the Core Skills series.
