Final report: "Open Research in History, Cultural Heritage and the Humanities: A Didactic Framework for Data Literacy and Open Research Practices"
Year: 2026
Type: article
Abstract: The project developed and shared a reusable learning framework for open research and data literacy in the humanities. It focused on developing an open course through practical work with cultural heritage data, alongside the theoretical discussion of the specific opportunities and challenges that openness raises in humanities research. Planned outputs included an open learning package, a public expert webinar, and a didactics paper. All three planned outputs were achieved: the self-paced course and webinar recording are available online, and the paper has been submitted to the journal of Digital Scholarship in the Humanities. The outputs are designed for students, researchers, teachers, and GLAM professionals who want to understand or apply open-research practices in digital humanities and cultural heritage work. This project was funded by the BMFTR Data Competence Center HERMES.
