A big welcome to all our new students who will be starting their MA degrees at @dhishef this week!

@ScotRail D'uh. Customer feedback. User-centred design? No. Just a dumb response. So much for accessibility eh?

[DHI @dhishef]

@ScotRail why do you use "Glasgow Ctl" and "Glasgow QSt" on the monitors in your local Glasgow stations? The important information is given as 3 letters which are hard to distinguish from afar. Why not spell out the important information: "Gl Central" and "Gl Queen St"?

Back from #DHC2024 where I talked about the importance of understanding the full pipeline of the methods used, and why off-the-shelf tools need triangulation and control to assure valid #digitalhumanities research. As a case study, I dissected textual emotion detection. 2/1

[Bethany Johnstone @Johnstone_BL]

It has been a complete joy to be able to attend, present and connect with old and new fellow DH colleagues at the #DHC2024 @dhishef.

[Zhi Ye @_ZhiYe]

It is my pleasure to present at the #DHC2024 with @ZheyuanZh today. ICH and its digitisation is a long process and we will continue working on this to provide more insight to museums and ICH related communities. So far ICH gamification looks promising.

Our closing keynote is @simon_mahony, Building Bridges and the Ties that Bind: Bringing us together but respecting our differences. #dhc2024 #dhcshef
