  Experiments - EngagingHumanists with Pundit • Investigate how genuine research interests of humanists can be 2 operationalized in the particular context of Linked Data and Pundit. • Interpretative approaches and Linked Data through annotations and visualization 12.12.2014 DM2E – Final Event (Pisa)
• 3.
  3 Experiments –Editorial and Archival Sciences • 15 students (BA) from the Fachhochschule Potsdam (FHP) • topic: diplomatic correspondence in the forefront of the Crisis of July 1914 • data: pre-selected sample of digitized original correspondences from the Political Archive of the German Foreign Ministry • task: devise and apply editorial guidelines 11.12.2014 DM2E – Final Event (Pisa)
• 4.
  4 Experiments –Educational History • 1 trained historian from the Georg- Eckert-Institute (GEI) • topic: representations of the nation and the globalized world in school books • data: selected digitized school books from GEI available through DM2E • task: identify topoi and their connotation in different types of school books 11.12.2014 DM2E – Final Event (Pisa)
• 5.
  5 Experiments –Visual History / Didactics of History • 15 BA/MA history students from Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin (UBER) • topic: learning critical analysis of digitized historical photographs • data: students search and selected their own photographs from the Web • task: conduct an analysis of photographs based on a prepared vocabulary 11.12.2014 DM2E – Final Event (Pisa)
• 6.
  6 Experiments –Process • Preparatory Phase − sequence of several meetings − conceptual: specifying the topic and approach, devising a vocabulary for annotation etc. − technical: in cooperation with Net7, e.g. accessibility of sources (HTML pages or scraper), bug-fixing of Pundit 2, implementing the vocabulary, preparing visualization options • Working Phase − with two full-day workshops for each use case and work at home in-between − introducing Linked Data and Pundit, discussions, annotating, questionnaire etc. • Follow-up Meetings 11.12.2014 DM2E – Final Event (Pisa)

  Experiments – SomeTentative Results • Experiments underline the usefulness of the principal approach 9 of Pundit and of Linked Data for humanities. − evidence for applicability in the context of interpretative approaches in the humanities • Simple Linked Data annotation vocabularies − proved to be relatively accessible to humanists − results can be obtained with relatively low prerequisites − participants created, understood and applied vocabularies within a few hours − support different kinds of research interest 11.12.2014 DM2E – Final Event (Pisa)

  1100 Experiments –Some Tentative Results • The vocabulary as an epistemological tool − Students (are forced to) reflect on their own work process because of the explicitness of the vocabulary. − Teachers have a pedagogical tool for communicating theoretical and practical representations of methods. − The vocabulary provides a common basis for discussion about the method and interpretation process. 11.12.2014 DM2E – Final Event (Pisa)

  1111 Experiments •Scholarly Activities are determined by the Social Context − authority, trust, legal issues • Can I annotate this text or image? Who owns the triple? Can I download my annotations? − provenance and citation of triples and resources • authorship and reputation: Who created the triple? Who checks the quality of annotations? • selective sharing of “factual” statements vs. “interpretative” statements (the intellectual work / outcome): Sharing what with whom? • “composite triples”: Who’s work is it? 11.12.2014 DM2E – Final Event (Pisa)
