ITEE students' HASS project “Work in Progress” presentations
RCC’s Marco Fahmi is supervising 11 students from UQ’s School of Information Technology and Electrical Engineering this year on their digital Humanities and Social Sciences (HASS) projects.
The capstone projects involve collaborations with researchers in Architecture, Arts, Education, History, Music, Languages and Cultures, as well as RCC.
Many of the projects involve creating apps’, tools or digital repositories to assist those in HASS with their research.
Nine of the students involved are Masters students, and two are undergraduates. Their projects will either last one or two semesters.
Over the coming months, RCC will host a series of “Work in Progress” presentations by the students about their projects. The presentations are open to all. Below is a schedule of the presentations for this semester:
- Friday, 20 April, 2pm–3pm: Katy McHugh on using the Folker tool with English language corpora.
- Monday, 14 May, 2pm–3pm: Xiaomei Li on text mining UQ’s collection of Indigenous theses.
- Monday, 28 May, 10am–11am: Andrea Alonso on building a wellbeing app’ for teachers.
