Digital Humanities: Computer-assisted Genetic Editing
The UAntwerp DH Summer School 2023 edition is titled Computer-assisted genetic editing: from handwritten text recognition to keystroke logging. It offers an intensive 5-day entry level hands-on course on making digital editions of analogue and born-digital texts. In this course, participants will acquire a set of basic computer skills such as xml mark-up language and handwritten text recognition to design a fully-fledged, TEI-compatible Digital Scholarly Edition and deploy keystroke logging technology to record and analyse born-digital texts. The target audience includes undergraduate students (BA3), graduate (MA) and postgraduate (PhD, postdoc) students as well as professionals in the field of Humanities. No prior knowledge of Digital Humanities is required to successfully complete the programme. BA and MA students can earn from 3 to 6 ECTS credits upon successful completion of the programme.
