In preparation for the opening of the Indiana University Libraries' Scholars' Commons, staff from across the libraries including, Collection Development & Scholarly Communication, Library Technologies, Reference Services, and Arts & Humanities, will engage in an extended, hands-on learning project known as Research Now: Cross Training for Digital Scholarship. Our project team will develop a digital archive tentatively called The History of the Indiana University Libraries, which is conceived as a comprehensive, multimedia, and perpetual digital archive documenting the earliest days of the Indiana University (IU) Libraries through present times. The archive will serve as an engaged learning opportunity for first-year, front line Scholars' Commons staff as we retool our skills and knowledge in preparation for the opening of the Scholars' Commons.
The project aims to:
consolidate two parallel web sites that cover the history of the IU Libraries by migrating the existing content into services such as Archives Online, Image Collections Online, and other services for long-term digital preservation and access
digitize and describe existing content (35 mm slides, photographs, manuscripts, newspaper clippings and other ephemeral materials and objects) held by Lou Malcomb, Head of Social Sciences, Gov Docs and GeoSciences
cross-reference existing digital content about the libraries' history from related resources and repositories
identify, digitize, and describe additional materials in existing repositories across campus
create and compile original primary and secondary source contextual information by way of oral histories, essays, timelines and chronologies, biographical sketches, bibliographies, and other related information
Above all, this is a learning project for frontline Scholars' Commons staff with three broad goals:
to understand the multi-faceted dimensions, iterations and phases involved in designing and developing a curated digital archive
to contribute to this project as researchers
to cultivate ad-hoc learning strategies
Cross-training began in mid-November 2013, and we would like to take this opportunity to provide you with an overview of our praxis-based cross-training initiative, and an update several months into our program. For more on the Research Now: Cross-Training for Digital Scholarship initiative, visit our blog.
This talk will discuss the context, methods and early results of a few of the projects underway at the HathiTrust Research Center, including: using machine learning to detect and classify English-language fiction and Black Fantastic literature, exploratory computational study of Native American-authored literature, and updates on the production of new datasets to further cultural analytics research. The HathiTrust Research Center is the research branch of the HathiTrust, with the mission of facilitating research use of the 17.6 million-item HathiTrust Digital Library. HTRC is co-hosted by PTI and the iSchool at University of Illinois.

How can the arts of memory counteract the inertial effects of what psychologist Peter Kahn, Jr. has called “intergenerational environmental amnesia”? The lecture seeks to offer a series of general reflections in response to key questions such as: How much reliance is to be placed on memory as carrier of environmental understanding and thereby as stimulus to environmentalist intervention? To what extent can memory–variously defined–be seen as a resource for reinvisioning (and renegotiating) the relation between human and otherthan-human realms in an era of environmental crisis?

How can medical schools best welcome and prepare newly minted students in ways that are inclusive and appropriate? And how can programs with multiple campuses build community through an orientation experience? How can programs adapt when there is a global pandemic that requires participants to physically distance? Additionally, how can schools set the stage to promote diversity from the beginning of medical school? With experience in undergraduate orientation and graduate orientation for part and full-time students, the presenters have honed the Indiana University School of Medicine's orientation program over the last four years and are now expanding to include first year experience (FYE) programming. The FYE program is designed to welcome students to campus, ease the adjustment into medical school, and help students understand the rigor and expectations of medical school. In this presentation, we will delve into the development of our program and how we used practices to transform from talking heads to what it is today.
Episode 16 of It Figures, a 28-part mathematics series for fourth graders. Each episode introduces real-life situations involving math concepts that can, at times, prove difficult. Often a child gets caught in the problem that does not come out successfully, but experience proves the best teacher. Capsizing the information taught in each program is a cartoon sequence. These cartoons provide previews of what follows from a live-action sequence. The content of It Figures was developed by a consortium of 31 state and provincial education agencies. Managing the project were Ed Cohen and the late Larry Walcoff. Individual programs were produced by Larry Wood Productions (in the facilities of KLVX in Las Vegas), the Illinois State Board of Education, New Jersey Network (NJN), KLCS in Los Angeles, Maryland Instructional Television and South Carolina ETV.
This prerecorded webinar examines the use BCSSE and NSSE results to focus on financial stress and the academic engagement of first-generation students. The goal is to provide information that is helpful for campus programs and services in order to better serve these students.
Retaining students is a key initiative for institutions. This webinar will highlight how to incorporate BCSSE and NSSE data to help inform your institution's retention efforts. In this webinar we will discuss research findings relating engagement and retention as well as explore ways in which NSSE and BCSSE data can be used to supplement retention efforts on your campus. We will also highlight examples of how other institutions have used their NSSE and BCSSE data in their retention plans. Finally, we will encourage participants to think of their own retention efforts and how they might use their NSSE or BCSSE to help improve their efforts. Attendees should make sure they have copies of both the BCSSE and NSSE surveys as this session will identify specific items from each. Copies of the surveys can be found at nsse.iub.edu. We ask that you submit any specific questions you have or barriers you have encountered when using BCSSE and/or NSSE data to help with retention efforts. Please list questions &/or topics that you would like to see addressed in the Webinar in the box below. Additional questions can be raised via the chat feature during the Webinar.
BCSSE asks entering first-year students about their high school academic experiences, as well as their academic expectations and attitudes regarding their first year of college. These data can be a catalyst for interesting and important discussions among faculty on how to effectively engage students. This session presents and discusses the types of data collected by BCSSE and how it can be used with faculty on your campus.
BCSSE Project Manager, Jim Cole, provides a description of BCSSE survey content and administration, and examples of how one campus used its results to find out more about its first-year students.
Many institutions offer learning communities for first year students. However, it is often difficult to determine how effective a learning community is at reaching its goals. This session will present and discuss ways to use BCSSE-NSSE data to help isolate the impacts of learning communities on first- year experiences.
Datasets that underlie research findings are increasingly in demand. Funding agencies and publishers require that research data be discoverable, accessible, and preserved for future use. Beyond this, data preservation and sharing are essential for the advancement of science. While research articles and monographs have persisted through time the original data mostly has not. Data repositories are essential scientific and university infrastructure that help solve this problem. Without this infrastructure it is difficult for researchers to share their intellectual output broadly and securely while getting the proper credit. Data repositories provide a centralized hub for data and promote cross-disciplinary collaboration which leads to the generation of new theories and cutting-edge science. DataCORE is IU Library’s new institutional data repository and provides the infrastructure to address these issues. In this presentation DataCORE’s development team and IU’s Data Services Librarian talk about the technology underlying DataCORE, its capacity and future as well as a demonstration on how to use it.
This presentation will showcase video segmentation and annotation functionality developed as a plugin to be used with Omeka, an open-source, exhibition software package. The plugin was made possible by a start up grant from the NEH Office of Digital Humanities. I will discuss two of the many potential functions this plugin provides for video in Omeka. First, it is able to represent interactive data on a timeline as videos play. This functionality makes it possible to use this tool in the classroom in a variety of ways, from presentation of data to students to the creation of videos and annotations by the students. In addition, this functionality is ideal for presenting video segments and annotation on an Omeka website so that you don't have to present entire videos but just important segments. Second, it is a tool that can be used for research, especially if it involves the representation of several streams of video. In their book The Maltese Touch of Evil: Film Noir and Potential Criticism, Richard Edwards and Shannon Scott Klute present the idea of an MTOE database, a collection of films noir that have been segmented and annotated and could be used to form the basis of new analyzes of the genre. How frequently and where do closeups occur in film noir? How dark is film noir, really? Do all men with guns wear hats in film noir? By segmenting the video and setting up side by side displays, this type of analysis becomes possible and provides a means to address questions that are often based on a few specially chosen films as opposed to many films across the genre. I will demo a preliminary version of this database using 20 public domain films noir and show how such an analysis could be done.

Those who have watched the Part 1 webinar are invited to join FSSE Project Associates Eddie Cole and Mahauganee Shaw for a live webinar regarding FSSE topical findings. This session will include an overview of the purpose of FSSE topical findings, a brief review of the information housed in the topical findings section of the FSSE website, and live Q&A.
Organizational researchers use a variety of methods to obtain sampling frames. The utility of these methods, however, is constrained by access restrictions, limited coverage, prohibitive costs, and cumbersome formats. This workshop presents a new method for generating sampling frames for any type of organization that is cost-effective, uses publicly available data, and produces near-comprehensive sampling frames for any geographic area in the U.S. The Python-based program we developed systematically scans the Google Maps platform to identify organizations of interest and retrieve their contact information. We demonstrate the program’s viability and utility by generating a sampling frame of religious congregations in the U.S. To assess Google Maps’ coverage and representativeness of such congregations, we examined two nationally representative samples of congregations and a census of every congregation in Indianapolis. We found that Google Maps contains approximately 98% of those congregations––near-complete coverage that ensures a near-perfect degree of representativeness. Using Google Maps to generate sampling frames promises to substantially improve the process for obtaining representative samples for organizational studies by reducing costs, increasing efficiency, and providing greater coverage and representativeness.
This session discusses the six conditions that mark high impact educational practices, the outcomes of participation, characteristics of activities and who participates, and recommendations for practice and assessment.
In this presentation, Dr. Devon Hensel reviews how two different community-based studies leveraged innovative recruitment, data collection, and retention methods to decrease barriers to study participants.
Classical applications of instrumental variables analysis are justified by structural models of behavior, and assumptions about the relationship between measured and unmeasured variables. Experimental and quasi-Experimental research designs present a partial alternative to structural modeling that is useful for answering certain types of research questions. It turns out that instrumental variables analysis can also help us make sense of several different research designs.
This workshop will introduce the key assumptions involved in instrumental variables analysis from the perspective of research design. It will examine the way instrumental variables can play a role in the analysis of data from (i) classical randomized experiments, (ii) experiments that mix randomization and participant choice, and (iii) surveys that suffer from nonresponse. In each case, research designs justify some instrumental variable assumptions and not others. Examples and best practices for applied research will be discussed throughout.
IPUMS provides free census and survey data from around the world. We receive funding from the NIH and NSF to make data more accessible to researchers by making them comparable across time and space. IPUMS data users can create customized data files with only the variables and samples of interest through our online interface and download these files for use in their preferred statistical package. By reducing the barriers to accessing rich data sources, IPUMS allows researchers to leverage publicly available datasets to answer a broad array of health-related research questions. This talk will provide an introduction to IPUMS, review the health-related data available, demonstrate how to use the IPUMS data extract system to create custom datasets, and will briefly discuss combining IPUMS data with restricted use versions in a Federal Statistical Research Data Center (FSRDC).
Behavioral scientists have been using the internet to conduct research for over two decades, but only recently has the scope of internet research begun to rival the traditional laboratory experiment. In this workshop, I will introduce you to the basics of online data collection and various tools for conducting online research, including jsPsych (http://www.jspsych.org), a programming library for conducting laboratory-like experiments online developed at Indiana University. I'll describe all the necessary components of running an online experiment, the features of jsPsych, and how to create a simple experiment using the jsPsych library.
Social media has become a primary means of communication and personal expression for many, and digital trace data from social media platforms can contain rich and extensive archives of individuals’ attitudes, beliefs, and actions. But even though these data are increasingly plentiful and available to social science researchers, the process of extracting meaningful measures of individual-level attributes from large collections of social media data is nontrivial. In this talk, Computational Social Scientist, Sam Bestvater, will draw from his research on political engagement in online spaces and its impacts on real-world behaviors to discuss how machine learning algorithms can be used to analyze large amounts of social media data and extract insights into political attitudes and activities. Along the way, the talk will introduce several recent innovations in natural language processing and computer vision, and will discuss some potential challenges and limitations of using these tools and data sources for political research, as well as ethical considerations that should be taken into account.

Shows the different kinds of nails and screws and their uses. Tells how to determine the size of nails, and how to drive them properly by using various techniques. Describes the hammer and screwdriver, and shows proper ways of handling them. Illustrates the principal parts of screws by diagram, and demonstrates various ways to make their use more effective.
Recent advances in natural language processing in the form of large language models (e.g., ChatGPT, GPT-3, BERT) have created new opportunities for social science research. While some of these models are proprietary and not easily accessible to researchers, others are publicly available through open source repositories such as HuggingFace. Key to these new language models is their ability to capture semantic meaning in texts, which means social scientists can leverage them to identify themes in large corpora of text that were previously unwieldy to analyze. In this workshop, we will review methods to harness these models to glean information from a range of sources including interviews, open-ended surveys, and web-scraped data.
This prerecorded webinar helps users construct the DAL scale and subscales using NSSE and FSSE data. It also provides a general overview of the concept as well as identifies areas where assessing DAL may be helpful for institutional improvement.
The most commonly reported use of NSSE results is for accreditation. NSSE's Accreditation Toolkits, designed for all regional and several specialized associations, map NSSE processes and items to the requirements and standards for each accreditor. The toolkits are available on the NSSE website. This webinar shows how NSSE items map to accreditation standards and discusses the potential for using NSSE data in institutional self-studies and quality improvement plans. The updated survey provides new items, topical modules, and more actionable Engagement Indicators, relevant to accreditation. If your self-study and site visit is fast approaching, or 5 or more years out, this session will be useful for your accreditation team.

In this session we show how NSSE items map to accreditation standards, discuss the potential for using NSSE data in institutional self-studies and quality improvement plans, and explore ways colleges and universities have used their results in accreditation and to measure and monitor institutional effectiveness.
As demands for accountability increase, student affairs divisions are pressed to demonstrate learning outcomes and conduct assessment. This webinar offers student affairs professionals ways to explore their NSSE results to gain valuable information about student experiences and suggestions for corroborating these trends with existing institutional data.
During the webinar, the presenters will demonstrate ways NSSE data can be leveraged to measure student participation in HIPs. Furthermore, there will be an emphasis on how to relate aspects of engagement with institutional measurements of HIP participation. The overall aim is to prepare participants to facilitate campus dialogue about high-impact practices and maximize the benefits of the updated NSSE survey data and reports.
In recent years, Omeka has become an important tool for the exhibit of digital object collections. As with many technologies, Omeka can present some issues with setup and configuration, but overall, Omeka is easy to use for managing digital content. A few of the recent projects to use Omeka are the Lilly Library's War of 1812 (http://collections.libraries.iub.edu/warof1812/) and Indiana University Library Moving Image Archive's World War II Propaganda Films (http://collections.libraries.iub.edu/IULMIA/). The two projects discussed at this session are the Don C. Belton memorial site by the English Department, presented by Erika Jenns, and the ‰ÛÃRegeneration in Digital Contexts: Early Black Film‰Û conference and workshop site presented by the Black Film Center/Archive graduate assistant Ardea Smith.
Using Omeka to Represent the Library of Professor Don C. Belton (http://belton.indiana.edu/) presented by Erika Jenns
Using my experiences cataloguing the collection of Professor Don Belton, the late novelist, book collector, and English professor at Indiana University Bloomington, I will address the benefits of using Omeka to create a dynamic access point for users. After Belton's death in 2009, the bulk of his collection was transferred to branch libraries on campus. Remaining books were kept by IU's English Department, which does not have a formal library. To make the collection more visible, I created an Omeka website, meant to function as a precursor to a visit to the collection. The site uses tags, rendering it more searchable. It also includes scans of book covers, digitized videos of Belton lecturing and reading, and posts by students who have worked with the collection. The site represents Belton's books both physically and electronically. Coupled with biographical information, it highlights Belton's research interests, sources of inspiration, and some of the works he produced.
The Proceedings of Regeneration in Digital Contexts: Early Black Film (http://www.indiana.edu/~regener8/regeneration/) presented by Ardea Smith
In 2013, the Black Film Center/Archive received a National Endowment for the Humanities Level I Digital Humanities Start-Up Grant to convene an interdisciplinary group of scholars, archivists, curators, and digital humanities technology specialists for a two-day conference and workshop, ‰ÛÃRegeneration in Digital Contexts: Early Black Film.‰Û The conference and workshop proceedings were documented on video and fully transcribed. To enhance public access to these proceedings, I oversaw the creation of a website utilizing the open-source Omeka platform and VideoStream 2 plugin designed by project advisor Will Cowan at Indiana University. The website anchors streaming video content to keyword-searchable transcripts of the event proceedings. Drawing on the development process for the ‰ÛÃRegeneration‰Û website, my presentation will discuss the practical issues of building of an Omeka-based site using IU's webserve system with an aim to help individuals new to digital archival creation.

R is a statistical package used by many digital textual analysts to explore aspects of styelometry. Here at IU, we have an instance of the popular Rstudio running on Karst to facilitate work on large corpora. However, it is often helpful to begin work with a small test set (sometimes even a single text) and scale up. The CyberDH group has put together code packages and annotated RNotebooks that are available on GitHub to serve as a friendly introduction to how the process of scaling up might work. This talk will step through the basics of these exercises and the visualizations that result.
This session targets institutions participating in the NSSE Consortium for the Study of Writing in College and provides an overview of NSSE and discusses the value of writing questions and their correlation with other variables.
Demonstrates with the Wheat Farmer an approved procedure for teaching with motion pictures. A seventh-grade social studies group studying how the world is fed discusses interests and problems which indicate that a motion picture would help; the teacher prepares the lesson by previewing the film and studying its handbook; immediately before screening, purposes or seeing the film are clarified; the film is shown; and pupils discuss questions previously outlined and plan further studies on the basis of what they have seen in the film.
Episode 6 from the Agency for Instructional Television series In Other Words. In this television program focusing on communication skills, host Stephanie Edwards provides on-camera commentary for stories concerning students' appropriate use of the ideas and words of others in their essays and conversations. A nondramatic segment presents newspaper and television reporters who explain how pertinent quotations lend credibility.
This session will discuss how typological theories, or theories on different configurations of variables that constitute "types," can help address complex causal relations such as high order interaction effects and equifinality even when there is limited diversity of cases. The discussion will emphasize operational issues such as how to develop typological theories, how to iterate between theorizing and initial empirical case study examples, and how to use typological theories to clarify case selection for qualitative research projects. The session will focus on two extended examples that participants may want to review in advance, though it is not essential order to follow the discussion. The first is an article on burden sharing in the 1991 Persian Gulf War (Bennett, Lepgold, and Unger, International Organization, Winter 1994), and the second is an article on military occupations (Edelstein, International Security, Summer 2004).
This webinar overviews how to effective use data from the Beginning College Survey of Student Engagement in combination with data from the National Survey of Student Engagement.

"Here is the first photographic report on the robot bomb since the censorship was lifted. In this nine-minute capsule of buzz-bomb terror, 'V-1' brings to the screen in 16 mm sound-on-film a subject which will arouse its audiences to a vivid realization of the terror that life in London must be under the robot. 'V-1' includes spectacular shots of the bombs being destroyed in mid-air by anti-aircraft fire and by fighter planes." "Scenes include: robot bomb attacks which killed or injured 26,000 persons by September 30, 1944 and destroyed or damaged a million houses. There is one tremendous moment when, in one of the most sensational scenes of the war, a 'V-1' is caught on the wing by a British plane" (Business Screen December, 1944, No. 2, Vol. 6, p. 41).

Summary:
In 1950, the U.S. Customs seized various materials that Alfred Kinsey was trying to import from Europe, a circumstance that led to the federal court case “United States v. 31 Photographs etc.” Among these controversial objects were books, engravings, and photographs that were deemed “obscene” according to the legal standard of the time. In 1957, thanks to the support of the IU President Herman B. Wells and a group of lawyers involved in civil liberties activities, the Kinsey Institute won the case and was able to recover the books and artworks, which are now part of its library. The verdict of this trial greatly contributed to redefine the notion of “obscenity” in legal terms, by creating an exception for the purpose of study and research, and thus consolidating academic freedom. This interdisciplinary project, at the crossroads of literary and legal studies, will develop a digital collection of books and artworks that were seized by U.S. Customs and then apply to this corpus tools of text mining and analysis meant to identify patterns that lead to the accusation of obscenity.
