Introduction to Digital Humanities
Introduction to Digital Humanities

Develop skills in digital research and visualization techniques across subjects and fields within the humanities.   About this course As primary sources of information are more frequently digitized and available online than ever before, how can we use those sources to ask new questions? How did Chinese families organize themselves and their landscapes in China’s past? How did African slaves from different cultures form communities in the Americas? What influences informed the creation and evolution of Broadway musicals? How can I understand or interpret 1,000 books all at once? How can I create a visualization that my students can interact with? The answers to these questions can be explored using a wide variety of digital tools, methods, and sources. As museums, libraries, archives and other institutions have digitized collections and artifacts, new tools and standards have been developed that turn those materials into machine-readable data. Optical Character Recognition (OCR) and the Text Encoding Initiative (TEI), for example, have enabled humanities researchers to process vast amounts of textual data. However, these advances are not limited just to text. Sound, images, and video have all been subject to these new forms of research. This course will show you how to manage the many aspects of digital humanities research and scholarship. Whether you are a student or scholar, librarian or archivist, museum curator or public historian — or just plain curious — this course will help you bring your area of study or interest to new life using digital tools.   What you'll learn What the term “digital humanities” means in different disciplines. How common digital tools work and examples of projects using them. How various file types can be used to create, gather, and organize data. How to use command-line functions to analyze text. How to use free tools to create visual text analysis.   Syllabus Lesson 1: Digital Humanities and Data Explain the term "digital humanities," and how it is understood across humanities disciplines. Describe the research journey as a partnership between researcher and library collections and staff. List examples of the limits of classification. Describe the implicit and explicit hierarchies that are created when gathering and analyzing data. Distinguish between what counts as data and what does not. Identify different data formats and how they fit into a research workflow.   Lesson 2: Digital Humanities Projects and Tools List tools of data analysis that can be applied to text in any language, space, networks, images, and statistical analysis.

Intellectual Property Law Specialization
Intellectual Property Law Specialization

Become fluent in the rules of the new economy. Learn how to use intellectual property law to protect and maximize the value of your innovations.   What You Will Learn Identify the types of intellectual property protection available under U.S. law Evaluate your options for protecting your creative innovations with copyright law Analyze and interpret a patent document for a competing product Develop strategies for protecting and maximizing your brand with a comprehensive trademark strategy   Skills You Will Gain Brand Management Strategic Thinking Planning Intellectual Property Business Strategy Asset Management Value Proposition Copyright Copyright Protection Fair Use Marketing Strategic Planning   About this Specialization Intellectual property is the currency of the tech world. The pharmaceutical patent for Lipitor generated over $100 billion in revenue, the copyright for the Harry Potter franchise has generated over $25 billion to date, and the trademarked brands of the world’s largest tech companies now eclipse $100 billion in value. But what makes these intangible assets so valuable? Through the courses in this specialization, you will learn the differences between the various forms of U.S. intellectual property rights, including patents, copyrights, and trademarks, and their various applications to human innovations. Drawing from that knowledge, you will then work to develop a trademark strategy for a company, analyze a patent document, and address a copyright cease-and-desist request. After completing these hands-on projects, you will have the necessary framework to craft integrated intellectual property strategies tailored to an organization’s core business goals.   Applied Learning Project Through the various projects on developing a trademark strategy, analyzing a patent document,  and addressing a copyright cease-and-desist request,  you will develop integrated intellectual property strategies tailored to an organization’s core business goals.    There are 4 Courses in this Specialization Course: 1 - Introduction to Intellectual Property Intellectual property is the currency of the tech world, with the world’s most valuable intellectual property assets dwarfing the value of their real-world counterparts. Apple’ trademarked brand was valued at over $100 billion as of 2017. J.K. Rowling’s Harry potter franchise has generated over $25 billion to date. But how did the law come to create such enormous value in intangible assets? This course will introduce the various types of U.S. intellectual property: patents, which cover inventions and process innovations; copyright, which protects original works of authorship; and trademarks, which protect a business’ commercial identity as the source of valuable goods and services. You will then explore case studies of how global businesses have used intellectual property law to generate enormous value from these intangible assets.   Course: 2 - Copyright Law Copyright law is unique in the greater intellectual property regime, as it protects original expression that is fixed in a tangible medium and is the product of authorship.  This course is designed for creative professionals — such as screenwriters, musicians, documentary filmmakers or artists — who want to understand the scope and limits of which works can enjoy U.S. copyright protection. The course will introduce students to the workings of copyright law through an examination of the system’s basic principles, rules, and institutions. Topics will include; the justifications for copyright law, copyrightable subject matter, authorship, the nature and scope of copyright’s exclusive rights, fair use, and remedies for infringement.  We will also explore real-world examples of legal battles surrounding copyright law, from the recent litigation over Robin Thicke’s hit song “Blurred Lines” to more peculiar cases such as the infamous “monkey selfie” case. By understanding what copyright does and does not protect, producers of creative expression will be able to protect and maximize the commercial value of their works.   Course: 3 - Trademark Law The protections afforded under trademark law have created incredible value in intangible assets, with the value of the world’s most valuable brands such as Amazon, Apple and Google each exceeding $100 billion. But what exactly is trademark law, and how is such enormous value created? This course examines the fundamentals of U.S. trademark law and the ways in which the manufacturers of various products and services can establish and protect their identities and the identities of their products in the marketplace.   We will explore the purpose of trademark law, identify the different types of trademarks, including names, designs, logos, and trade dress, and explore strategies for choosing and protecting strong, potentially valuable trademarks. We will also discuss strategies for strengthening descriptive marks, and lay out the steps for filing for federal trademark protection. Finally, we will address how to design an ongoing maintenance strategy to protect, extend, and maximize the value of trademarks, and discuss strategies for responding to possible trademark infringement.   Course: 4 - Patent Law In our modern technologically-based economy, the creation and enforcement of patent rights can make or break a business. With record numbers of patents being issued every year, the stakes for inventors (and, indeed, their lawyers) continue to rise, even as the patent law and its administration faces growing criticism.  This course begins with an examination of the fundamental justifications for and creation of U.S. patent rights as well as the relationship between patent law and other “intellectual property” concepts. We will then delve into the details of the U.S. requirements for patentability, and explore the scope of patent rights, again considering how the policies expressed reflect the justifications for patent rights. Then we will look at an actual patent document and analyze the different pieces of an issued patent with a special focus on the importance of patent claims. Finally, we will explore strategies for dealing with patent infringement.   Offered by University of Pennsylvania   Instructors R.
