About Computational Humanities
"Digital technology is fundamentally changing the way in which we engage the research process" (Berry, 2011) As digital technology has become ubiquitous and more an more data is becoming available in electronic form, we are witnessing what Berry calls a “computational turn in the humanities”. Computational humanities use digital tools and computational techniques to explore new modes of doing research in the humanities. Computational humanities deal with the following questions: How can humanities data – which is traditionally interpreted in an idiographic, hermeneutic way – be modeled in a way it becomes available for computational, empiric analyses? Visit our research section to see how we approach the above challenges.

"Toy Chest" collects online or downloadable software tools and thinking toys that humanities students and others without programming skills (but with basic computer and Internet literacy) can use to create interesting projects. Most of the tools gathered here are free or relatively inexpensive (exceptions: items that are expensive but can be used on a free trial basis). Also on this site are "paradigms"--books, essays, digital projects, etc.--that illustrate the kinds of humanities projects that these thinking tools/toys might help create. A star indicates tools that combine power (advanced, multiple, or flexible features) with ease of use. This site is kept by Alan Liu for his "Literature+" digital humanities courses (recent examples of course: undergraduate | graduate).

About Digital Humanities - Digital Humanities - Research Guides at Rutgers University
There's no simple answer to the question, "What is Digital Humanities?" Practitioners often define Digital Humanities differently depending upon their own activity. Roughly defined, Digital Humanities is the practice of incorporating technology in teaching, research and the dissemination of scholarship in any of the traditional humanities disciplines. There are four main areas of activity in the Digital Humanities: Research and development for analyzing humanities data and creating new tools for that analysis, the use of technology in humanities pedagogy, theory and critical inquiry related to the ways in which technology is changing the way we understand our selves, our cultures and our societies and preservation and access of materials and scholarly works in the humanities. In the rest of this guide, you'll find links to help you learn more about this growing, multi-disciplinary community of practice.

The Two Minutes It Takes To Read This Will Improve Your Writing Forever — An Idea For You
The Two Minutes It Takes To Read This Will Improve Your Writing Forever You’re busy, so I’ll keep this quick. Following are the simplest tips I can give you to easily — and forever — improve the quality of your writing. Delete the word “that.” At least 90% of the times you use the word “that” can be removed from your writing and it will instantly make your sentence stronger. Example: “You believe that I’m lying, but I’m not.” becomes “You believe I’m lying, but I’m not.” Delete the words “I think.” It adds nothing. Example: “I think this is a good sentence.” becomes “This is a good sentence.” Avoid words that end in “-ing.” In most cases, the “-ing” softens your word and adds no value. Example: “The experiences we’re seeking end up being underwhelming and even disappointing.” becomes “The experiences we seek often underwhelm and disappoint.” Short sentences. Most sentences can be cut in half. Keep paragraphs to less than three sentences. White space is your reader’s friend.
