For the tutorial project, I chose to demonstrate how to use WordPress plugins that help website creators translate their websites into different languages for a diverse, international audience. The first option, Google Language Plugin, requires almost no effort on the part of the website creator. It automatically translates all information in an original language into […]
I am in charge of the GIS story map in our project. I used the ArcGIS Story map to generate our presentation template. We decided to use the sidecar to present the whole project. At the first page, we’ll have an overall introduction of his life, including the places he had been and the poems […]
Annotation Studio is a web based application designed to engage its users with a hands-on digital approach to analyzing texts. Users have the ability to practice and develop skills that pertain to a humanities standpoint by annotating readings and primary sources while also sharpening their proficiency of online web use. With an indefinitely growing digital […]
Autodesk Fusion 360 is a CAD software which is a lot like Sketchup, but without all those annoying dots. The program is free for students,but can make your computer angry, which is why I used a school computer for this tutorial. Fusion 360 is really helpful for modeling different objects, especially for 3D printing. Today […]
So far, our group has found archives that contain off-campus study data. I’ve looked through lots of online and paper documents that contain data about off-campus studies. After looking through the data and finding the most relevant data, I entered it into our spreadsheet. We will be continuing to enter data into the spreadsheet over […]
Progress So far, we have narrowed down our areas of focus, started our data collection, and contacted Archives in the library to find more historical information about past OCS programs. We have been working with Nat Wilson in the archives who has compiled information on OCS programs for us. These documents are unprocessed and only […]
Progress: So far, our group has been focusing mainly on gathering as many maps of the Arb as possible. As of right now, we have found 14 maps ranging from 1931 to 2016, using the online Arb collection. We talked to a research librarian who suggested that, if we wanted to map the Arb between […]
Progress: What have you done so far, who have you talked to, what have you gathered, and what have you built? We have started thinking of ways to make our research more pointed and are looking into specific topics to cover. We are thinking about separating the information either by a decade or by specific […]
Aaron Forman, Molly Sandweiss, Nacho Rodriguez, and Bia Furtado Since last week, our group has taken significant strides toward the fulfillment of our final project’s goals. Bia acquired data spreadsheets from Dacie Moses house, which contain information pertaining to volunteers, events, donations, Sunday Brunches, and types of food. Nacho worked with Open Refine to clean […]
Brooke McKelvey, Nicole Connell, and Rebecca Hicke The progress we’ve made on our project has been in the data collection area, which we’ve identified as the most time consuming area of our project. We have gotten about 25% of the way through our initial data collection, which involves identifying classes listed in Carleton’s academic catalogs […]
I am interested in thinking about convo in its other iterations, before discoursed surrounding the purpose of convo was as strongly focused around promoting inclusion and diversity in the specifically 21st political sense. How was the purpose of convo defined before many of the college’s official language circled around these sorts of ideas? From a […]
I want to see us recognize the work of the educators, those that analyze and characterize and critique, everyone who fixes things, all the other people who do valuable work with and for others—above all, the caregivers—whose work isn’t about something you can put in a box and sell. —— Why I Am Not a […]
The group for this project is Teagan Johnson, Alexei Thomas, Hannah Sheridan and Eli Offman. For this project, we intend to compare Carleton College’s Off-Campus Study offerings over the years. Carleton publishes statistics about the percentage of the graduating class that went on OCS, recurring programs, popular locations for specific courses, relation to popularity in […]
Thoughts: We will focus on the reconstruction of one of the buildings in the Forbidden City. Besides constructing the 3-d model, we may align it in a story map and present background information of it, such as the procedure of the construction or the historical stories lay behind it. Here is the group block link:
The members of our motley crew are: Spencer Lekki, Chloe Truebenbach, and Cecilia Kryzda. Our project objectives are twofold: we seek to compare the keywords, themes, host departments to general descriptions and purpose statements about Convocation. Further, we would like to observe changes in Carleton’s institutional ideas of importance. From a cursory skim of the […]
Nicole Connell, Rebecca Hicke, Brooke McKelvey Our project will be creating a network from a text analysis that displays the relationships between departments and professors through co-taught classes. Our data is composed of classes with multiple professors and comes from the past twenty years of academic catalogs (1999-2000 to 2019-2020) which are in the archives […]
Members: Ginifer Coffin, Faith Yim, Daniel Chung, Lucklita Theng Project Topic: Carleton’s Food: Where Does it Come From? Proposed Methodology: We are planning on using data from the Carleton food providers from the past decade or so (ex. Bon Appetit). The information we will be specifically interested in staple food products (meat, dairy, vegetables, grains) […]
I didn’t realize that there was such a large difference in the squirrel populations, so the data set on ArcGIS was interesting to see. I had some struggles with ArcGIS at first, and it took some poking around to find various options and layers for the map. I was never able to find the “Enable […]
Group Members: Molly, Nacho, Bia, Aaron Definition of Project Objectives: Find out how times of the year affect how many people visit Dacie Moises House and what they bake. The Plan: We want to make a timeline that shows the busiest times of terms and what kinds of things get baked at different times of […]
This ArcGIS map shows the trends between the gender, birthplace, and other statistics of artists from 1900-1929 using data from the Tate art collection. Link: Teagan’s Midterm
(My title is only half serious.) For the midterm, I used some text analysis tools on Mark Twain’s speeches. The results? Everything from heartwarming to hair-raising. Read it here.
I compared two interactive maps displaying the location and genre of photographs taken by Charles Cushman in 1962 and 1963.
For my project, I created a 3D model of the Northfield Depot using photogrammetry. Here is a link!
Here’s a link to my blog post on the Midterm Exam. For this project I decided to render a 3-d model of the Northfield Depot, using platforms such as MetaShape, MeshMixer and Sketchfab. Here’s the link: http://midterm.biafurtado.com
For midterm, I decided to do the 3-D model of Northfield Depot by using Agisoft Metashape. Here’s the link: http://midterm.com.silaszhao.com/blog/
For my midterm project, I analyzed Cushman’s photograph collection by mapping each photo in their respective cities in the United States while clearly differentiating in which season each photo was taken.
I analyzed the tate artist data and looked to see if there were any correlations between urban areas and the number of artists that came from these places. You can find it here.
For my project, I looked at the relationship between artists and mediums of artwork in the artwork from the 1940s in the Tate collection by creating a network. The project is here!
For my Midterm project, I mapped Charles Cushman’s photographs from the years 1962 and 1963, categorizing them by the state in which they were taken.
