  1. In my digital history class this semester, we were originally going to do some topic modeling work with MALLET but students struggled to get it installed.

    So we pivoted and a few weeks later, used #Voyant to do the modeling, then Datawrapper to play with visualization.

    Was a real success, and bringing #Datawrapper into the mix really helped compensate for Voyant's limitations in terms of visualization. The students really enjoyed trying different visualizations out, even if they were a bust, and trying to make sense of what they were seeing.

    Planning to type up some notes as a more formal lesson plan. If I ever get a website up and running again, I'll share it there (someday).

  6. Addendum to 🧵 #ResearchSupportPartnershipUiO On Monday this week, I held my guest lecture for master students of #History again, called "Digital Research Methods for Historians". I started giving this lecture in spring 2018 and have been repeating it every semester since. I usually talk about digital source material (mainly Norwegian) and show some tools, like #Mirador #IIIFViewer #Transkribus #Voyant #CATMA #Recogito #HypothesesBlog and the Norwegian National Library's API and apps.

  7. #Looted #Art #Restitution #Texts as #Data

    The #provenance research and decisions of national commissions responsible for deciding whether to restitute artworks to heirs of victims of Nazi persecution are often published as PDF files in German with no links to authority files or identifiers.

    What if we translate and analyse the restitution decisions listed by the Belvedere in #Voyant-Tools?
