Do LLMs turn coders into „code-readers“ / „evaluators“? How do we teach Python when every beginner student can generate code that’s better and more complex than anything they can master in years of learning? Is the old teaching pipeline with data types, if-else-s, loops, functions and so on… DONE? Shall we teach code interpretation like complex text interpretation? Discussing at #DH2025

We cannot believe these 5 days are over 😭 The ‘Text as data’ #DHSpringSchool has reached its end, but the spring continues to blossom — and so do #DigitalHumanities 🌸🌸🌸
“..and my favourite fanfiction community — the one around German pseudo documentary criminal series” — @a_glawion presents network analysis of fanfiction communities based on mutual reviews at fanfiction[dot]de, which is also the source for practical data at the #DHSpringSchool networks workshop ⛓️‍💥👩‍💻👨‍💻
🧑‍🏫💻 Will chalkboards survive in the digital world? We were surprised to see how useful this old-fashioned medium proved to be during our #DHSpringSchool — workshop leaders were so eager to use it for quick explanations 💁 Here Artjoms Şeļa is asking the participants to rate their lunch at @unipotsdam’s Mensa and immediately plots the distribution with chalk (to end up with a nice Gaussian)

You can tell apart iambic and trochaic meters just by measuring the frequency of ONE word (a single-character one!). At least in Czech, where it's not easy to do iambic poetry without adding monosyllabic words at the start of the line… @artjomshl.bsky.social explains the relation between the frequencies and meters in poetry (as part of the stylometry workshop at #DHSpringSchool)
