2. QUESTIONS
How do historians deal with the challenges of
digital technology?
How do they benefit from it?
3. INVESTIGATION

mailing lists (DH, AHCESR)
Sending e-mail to historians targeted under
Academia social network
4. AXIS OF REFLECTIONS
Collection of research data

7. COLLECTION OF RESEARCH DATA
Digitization
In his daily practice, the historian no longer plans to
work without the help of the digital tools available
for collecting research data
13. CONCLUSION
Digital humanities must draw attention to the
impact that the methods and theories of the
human sciences should have on the design of
digital media, its valorization and its visibility
on the web
14. PROCESSING DATA

15. PROCESSING DATA
Problems encountered while using the software:
Does not meet their need.
Interface too complex
Installation and / or configuration problems.
Manual methods allow them to be more productive.
16. PROCESSING DATA
The analysis of sources using advanced computer
tools should help researchers not only to confirm
or refine certain hypotheses but also to raise new
questions.
In order to grasp the opportunities of access to
digitized sources, we must go beyond the simple
use of basic functionalities
17. PROCESSING DATA
One of the main reasons is that most software
have been designed for the majority of users who
are not historians.
Involve the historians step by step in the
development of their own tools, and involve them
in the construction of the appropriate digital
infrastructure.
18. PROCESSING DATA
In the research process all the roles are
complementary and the contributions of this
collaboration could be fruitful.
20. PROCESSING DATA
How to maintain a balance between the various
collaborators?
What new forms of evaluation of research are
needed?
21. PROCESSING DATA
What new skills are needed for the researcher?
What training should be considered?
22. CONCLUSION
Digital humanities must give themselves the
means to succeed in instrumentation by the
historian community itself in order to
guarantee the inclusion of its standards at
proposed tools
25. DISSEMINATION OF HISTORICAL
KNOWLEDGE
Reveal the daily life of its activity, its
assumptions, his discoveries, his readings that
represents a real obstacle for the majority of the
historian
27. DISSEMINATION OF HISTORICAL
KNOWLEDGE
How to ensure the protection of the intellectual
work of the contributor when unveiling a work
which is under development.
28. CONCLUSIONS
Digital humanities must draw attention to the
impact that the methods and theories of the
human sciences should have on the design of
digital media, its valorization and its visibility
on the web
It is necessary to subject computer technology to
the needs of SHS researchers and to their
specificities rather than asking them to submit to
the tool by involving them in design.
