To attend these studies, the general prerequisites of the MA degree on Humanities and Digital Heritage are necessary. In general, the student should have already some studies at BA-level on Humanities and / or Social Sciences disciplines. The course can also be useful to computer science graduates who want to specialize in the use of digital technologies in the field of Humanities and cultural studies, although they do not have previous experience on Humanities nor Cultural studies. Familiarity, at use level, with computers and standard office software is required. Although not mandatory, prior training, at a basic level, in the use of computerized databases, computer-assisted cartography, digital photography and statistics is recommended.
The basic and reference bibliography is in English, as well as the software to be used. Knowledge of English at the level of specialized reading is therefore recommended.
This optional module aims to introduce students to the treatment and analysis of oral, written and sound productions with digital technologies. In the case of written texts and textual corpus, it is proposed to reflect on the implications of the transition from paper edition to digital edition and then focus on digital edition. In the case of oral and sound productions, an introduction will be made on the processing, labeling and categorization of sound files. The use of geographic information systems (GIS) for the coding of linguistic information applied to the study of variation (geolinguistics) and the use of social networks and crowdsourcing as part of data mining will be explored. It will also reflect on the new conception of the literary text and its interpretation in the digital age, with special attention to the polysemic concept, as well as the new possibilities of approach to the artistic fact, the reception of digital artistic work in the field of the network and the new ways of approaching and analyzing the info-assisted text.
DIGITIZING SPOKEN WORDS. The transition from analog to digital signal. Characteristics of the audio formats: wav and mp3. Segmentation, labeling and storage of the speech signal.
SOUND FILES. Data extraction, statistical analysis and inference. Network publication of sound documents and textgrids. Management and terminology search through relational database.
DIGITIZING MUSIC. Cataloging and archiving of music files. Consultation of music files. Applications of Artificial Intelligence in the analysis of digitized music.
DIGITAL EDITION. From manuscripts and print to XML. Text Encoding Initiative. Segmentation, marking and analysis of linguistic or literary texts. New reaches of digital publishing: visualization, exploitation, science and transfer.
NEW FORMS OF RESEARCH AND DISSEMINATION IN LITERATURE. Stylometry, distant reading, georeferencing, data storage and analysis.
NATURAL LANGUAGE PROCESSING TOOLS. Computer-assisted study of poetic and literary texts. Digital dialectology.

The methodology is divided between directed activities, supervised activities, autonomous activities and assessment activities.
In autonomous activities (22,4%), study hours and student preparation must be taken into account in order to face the assessment activity. These activities will be composed of searching for documentation, elaboration of databases, exercises to apply the exposed study techniques and reading references as reinforcement material.
The directed activities (48,8%) have to respond in a predetermined time schedule, which requires the face-to-face address of a teacher and which is specified in hours in the previous section. In addition, it must be taken into account that these activities are distributed in theoretical classes (28,8%) and approach to case studies and problems that may arise around a specific topic (20%).
Regarding supervised activities (28,8%), the teacher programs them so that the student works autonomously, but with the teacher's supervision. In case the student cannot develop these activities autonomously, the teacher will suggest the materials that he can use to carry out the proposed activities.
Annotation: Within the schedule set by the centre or degree programme, 15 minutes of one class will be reserved for students to evaluate their lecturers and their courses or modules through questionnaires.
Title | Weighting | Hours | ECTS | Learning Outcomes |
---|---|---|---|---|
Work or project on one of the aspects treated and in agreement with at least one of the teachers of the module | 100% | 25 | 1 | 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29 |
The work can have a purely theoretical orientation, or theoretical-practical, or eminently practical. It can also consist of a project or elaboration of a finished digital object. In any case, in thematic or technological relation with any aspect treated in the module and previous agreement with at least one of the professors.
The professor of the subject will establish minimum requirements on the basis of which the student will be able to overcome it.
Making mistakes in spelling, vocabulary and syntax will have a penalty of 0.25 on the final mark of each of the activities.
DELIVERY DATES AND REVIEW OF QUALIFICATIONS
The delivery dates of these proofs are to be agreed between the teacher and the students.
On carrying out each evaluation activity, lecturers will inform students (on Moodle) of the procedures to be followed for reviewing all grades awarded, and the date on which such a review will take place.
THERE IS NO OPTION SINGLE ASSESSMENT
PLAGIARISM AND OTHER IRREGULARITIES
In the event of a student committing any irregularity that may lead to a significant variation in the grade awarded toan assessment activity, the student will be given a zerofor this activity, regardless of any disciplinary process that may take place. In the event of several irregularities in assessment activities of the same subject, the student will be given a zeroasthe final grade for this subject.
NOT ASSESSED/NOT SUBMITTED
Students will obtain a Not assessed/Not submitted course grade unless they have submitted more than 1/3 of the assessment items.
