What are best practices for teaching students to engage with 'wicked' problems?

An increasing number of researchers in the social sciences, humanities, and arts (SSH+A) are working with non-traditional research outputs (NTROs), such as films, performances, and sound recordings. However, these forms of research often receive little recognition within the digital scholarly infrastructure,…

This book explores how demographic changes, especially population decline and ageing, influence digital innovation within the public sector. Drawing on an analysis of 110 Italian municipalities, the research illuminates the under-researched impact of 'big but slow moving' macro-level factors.

Bacteriophages, or phages for short, are the most abundant biological entity in nature. They shape bacterial communities and are a major driving force in bacterial evolution.

A P300-based Brain Computer Interface character speller, also known as P300 speller, has been an important communication pathway, under extensive research, for people who lose motor ability, such as patients with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis or spinal-cord injury because a P300 speller allows human-beings…

This problem analysis raises the importance of a two interlinked questions: (1) what are important digital skills in the public sector? and (2) how well do different organizational and individual factors explain differences in skills levels?

Unfortunately we have to postpone the workshop with Ben Spatz due to the Corona-virus.

What are the impacts of digital educational resources on rural teachers and their teaching in China?

One-size-fits-all digital gamification sometimes hinders students’ learning due to the ignorance of individual differences. This project aims to explore how tailored digital gamification can be used in higher education and its effects on university students’ motivation and learning outcomes.

This dissertation is a study of the view of the Neoplatonist Proclus (Athens, 411-485) on to what extent and how the changing and unreliable world of sense perception can itself be an object of scientific knowledge.

Jaroslaw Kantorowicz and Rok Spruk examine the contribution of institutional reforms to economic growth.

A new publication on changes in the relationship between news and their public in Chile

With the help of quantum mechanics, digital quantum hardware may be able to tackle some of the problems that are too difficult for ordinary computers. But despite these expectations and the ongoing effort of the research community, reliable quantum computers are not yet realized in a lab setting.

The Digital Lab is open! This new lab is meant for staff and students who are looking for a place to work, experiment, and find support for their digital research. There’ll be a kickoff event, with live digital demos and a roundtable on “the Humanities in a Digital World” on Friday October 29 in the…
