The tutorials have been developed within the framework of DARIAH-DE over the last two years and have so far been used in a series of lectures (BA-level university lectures as well as various workshops for young scholars from the humanities).
The tutorial was created by Christof Schöch at the University of Würzburg and, with the support of Mareike Laue, Philip Dürholt, Sina Bock and Keli Du, was released for the first time (version 1.0) in June 2014. The task sheets themselves are written in TEI and are automatically generated to PDF files by using XML Print.
The slides and tasks are based in part on the training materials, which the team "Digital Humanities @ Oxford" for the local school 2012 has developed and published. These have not only been translated, but have also been further developed and supplemented by new topics, tasks and materials. This is possible due to the Creative Commons licensing of the Oxford materials. We are publishing these tutorials with the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International (CC-BY) license to allow further edits.
In addition to the PDF files listed above, the XML files of the task sheets (including the RNG schema) are also available, the ODD as well as the two configuration files for XML-Print) to be downloaded directly from the SVN repository, so that third-party changes can be made to the CC-BY license and PDF files can be generated again.
