    Developing Data Stories in Digital Humanities: Challenges and Protocol

    Get PDF
    This article discusses the development of data-driven stories and the editorial processes underlying their production. Such ‘data stories’ have proliferated in journalism but are also increasingly developed within academia. Within CLARIAH, the Common Lab Infrastructure for the Arts and Humanities, we are developing data stories based on analyses of data and metadata available via the Media Suite, an online resource providing access to a wide range of multimedia collections. Although ‘data stories’ lack a clear definition, there are similarities between the processes that underlie journalistic and academic data stories. However, there are also differences, specifically when it comes to epistemological claims. In this article we discuss data stories as phenomenon and their use in journalism and in the Humanities, based on the three main elements of data stories: data, visualisation, and narration. This provides the context in which we developed an editorial protocol for the development of CLARIAH Media Suite Data Stories, which includes four phases: exploration, research, review, and publication. While exploration focuses on data selection, research focuses on narration. Visualisation plays a role in both of these phases. Review is geared towards quality control, and in the publication phase the data story is published and monitored. By discussing our editorial protocol, we hope to contribute to the debate about how to develop and account for academic data stories

    Involving Users in Infrastructure Development: Methodological Reflections From the Research Pilot Projects Using the CLARIAH Media Suite.

    Get PDF
    In this contribution we introduce a compilation of articles that reflect on the use of the CLARIAH Media Suite and its impact on research methods, as they were conducted during the CLARIAH research pilot projects (2017-18). The pilot projects fit in a co-development approach in which users are involved in infrastructure development from the start. We discuss how feedback of the pilot researchers was incorporated in the iterative development and testing of the Media Suite

    Unravelling Medical Leadership

    No full text
    Medical leadership is a popular topic in the Netherlands, and several interest groups now incorporate medical leadership into postgraduate medical education. However, there is no consensus on what this concept entails. By conducting a discourse analysis, a qualitative method which uses language and text to reveal existing viewpoints, this article reveals three perspectives on medical leadership: administrative leadership, leadership within organisations and leadership within each doctor's daily practice. Text analysis shows that the first two perspectives refer to medical leadership mainly in a defensive manner: by demonstrating medical leadership doctors could 'take the lead' once again; patient care only seems to play a small part in the process. These perspectives are not free of consequences, they will determine how the medical profession is constructed. For this reason, it is argued that there should be more emphasis on the third perspective, in which the quality of care for patients is of primary importance
