- Crowdsourced-Data Normalization with Python and Pandas
- Working with batches of PDF files (for OCR and text extraction)
- Introduction to Jupyter Notebooks
Lessons are available in different languages:
English (101 lessons), Spanish (59 lessons), French (25 lessons), Portugese (42 lessons).Who is it for?
Main traget group is reearches / librarians / archivists already working in the field of digital humanities and either with concrete platforms / data on their hands or wanting to find out more about them. Each lesson contains a "difficulty" ranking as well as a brief section on requirements to check if it's something you're up for.
