| summary | Rather than closing the seminar with a conference, the final session will be a two-day participatory workshop event where data, tools and methods are collectively explored with seminar participants. This final session will also be open to the public. The workshop takes its inspiration from BarCamp events. Though loosely defined, these events are based on two fundamental principles: no one is a spectator (everyone participates through their different forms of expertise; i.e. technical or analytical skills) and results are produced and shared at the end of the event. A BarCamp usually kicks off with a presentation of participants (name, affiliation, interests) and then relies on the self-organizing capacity of participants to form groups and pursue a given project. In this case, our interest lies in how participants will use various sources of data and DMTs to improve our knowledge of a given social phenomenon. Participants can choose to work with data sets that will be provided by organizers or build their own datasets. They are free in their choice of tools, though the organizer’s will provide extensive technical support for Gephi and the CorTexT Manager. Throughout the two-day event, participants can schedule “special sessions” on the sessions grid to address specific points. The sharing of information is encouraged through mailing lists, shared notepads (i.e. EtherPad) and the seminar’s website in an effort to minimize “off-the-record” information exchange that characterizes invite-only events. Indeed, participant’s productions will be accessible online. This practise-oriented event will also provide informal feedback on the seminar and help plan future steps. |
