Automated Transcription as an Analytical Practice?
2021-05-11 12:00 - 14:30 (Europe/Paris) | Copenhagen S
On the 11th of May ETHOS Lab will finally be able to invite ITU students for a physical workshop.
This time, we will dig deep into the consequences and possibilities of Automated Transcription Software (ATS). The process of transcribing your materiel can be tedious and daunting, so no wonder researchers around the world are thinking about ways to make this process more smoothly and less time consuming.
However, what are the implications when we upload our files to a software?
What does this automatization mean for our relationship to the empirical material?
How may this affect the analytical outcome?
In this workshop, we take transcription seriously as an analytical practice, often forgotten and dreaded, however, greatly important for the research.
Post.doc. Stina Hasse Jørgensen and ETHOS Lab Manager Merethe Riggelsen Gjørding will facilitate, and together we will critically assess the current available ATS and collectively discuss possible ways of using the software in a reflective manner.
The workshop will consist of a mix of group-based work, collective discussions, short presentations, and small talk over vegan break-snacks. You will only need yourself and your laptop.
Hope to see both new and familiar faces!
Tuesday 11.05.21: 12.00-14.30
Auditorium 0, IT University of Copenhagen
For more information and sign up, write to merg@itu.dk

🦶-notes:
There are limited seats, and only for ITU students (not staff) due to the Corona-restrictions.
In order for us to be physically together, we need a negative coronatest maximum 72h prior.

On June 16th, ETHOS Lab is hosting a Thesis Fest where you along with other MSc students have the possibility to reflect on previous master theses as well as workshop a section of your own thesis draft.
Postdoc. Michael Hockenhull, ETHOS Lab Manager Merethe R. Gjørding, and Lab TA Casper Frohn will facilitate and provide perspectives on how to structure your work and argumentation.
If you have prolonged your master thesis, this event is for you!
Prior to the event, you will receive a master thesis to glance through beforehand, which will serve as a point of departure in group discussions.
For the event, you should bring a section (max 4 pages) from your own thesis that you would like to workshop. It might be a section that is giving you some trouble, and there are no requirements on how far you are with this section.
If the weather is good, we’ll be outside by the canal next to ITU. If not, we’ll gather indoors at ITU (room tba). Snacks are of course provided!
Program for the event:

14-14.10 Intro
14.10-14.50 Group reflections on the previous thesis (a worksheet will be provided
Break
16.00-15.30 Workshop your own section
15.30-16.00 Collective discussion on how to structure thesis writing
It is possible to hang out afterwards and stay with the reflections together

Sign up by writing to Lab TA Casper Frohn on cbfr@itu.dk by Friday June 12th at 12.00. If you miss the deadline, write an email anyway and then we’ll see.
We hope to see you there and look forward to be in conversation with you!
