Digital Humanities

What are the Digital Humanities?

Digital Technologies & Humanities

During my time at the University of Prince Edward Island, I was introduced to the Digital Humanities. The premise is using various technologies to advance the study human culture and society.

I took a class on Digital Humanities from a Professor that was actively using technology applied to his study of humanities. I thought about all the potentials for it and have since begun trying my hand at a few projects.

Digital Humanities Projects

Human Rights Violations Map

I reviewed various NGOs data on Human Rights indexes of countries, and began to quantify and visualize them on a map.

The Geospatial Humanities: Volume 1

I worked on a project with the UPEI Geolab that turned into an Open Educational Resource (OER).

More to come…

I am always open to starting new projects.
