Principles of Humanities Data Science
In this module, you will be introduced to the principles that underpin humanities data science. We will focus on how to embed a justice-oriented approach in humanities data science, with particular emphasis on climate, feminist, queer, and racial justice. We will explore principles such as minimal computing and lean code, examine histories of hetero-normative and colonial data infrastructures, and consider relationships between volume and complexity in humanistic data. This module will enable you to apply your (inter)disciplinary humanities knowledge to data science and consider how this knowledge can (re)shape data science practices.
