The main goal of Nodos is to promote the collective creation of semantic knowledge regarding performing arts. Recording and curating information about these expressions contributes to the preservation of the Intangible Cultural Heritage, as defined by UNESCO. One of the challenges related to the preservation of information is the large amount of people involved in the creation and development of scenic arts and the dynamism in these theater pieces. The large number of plays presented every year makes it difficult to keep records up to date, resulting in the loss of knowledge about many cultural pieces. This article introduces a way to record such cultural heritage in the context of a citizen science project. Nodos defines an ontology regarding performing arts and also uses a semantic wiki that helps in the implementation of the ontology. An evaluation of usability shows Nodos as an effective initiative to preserve and study performing arts. Keywords: Semantic Wiki; Intangible Cultural Heritage; Performing arts ontology.

Digital storytelling can offer multiple benefits both to students and teachers, and new media provide multimodal ways to produce, transmit and communicate stories. In parallel, the need to engage preschool children with the creative use of technology emerges in order to address concerns that arise from the modern way of life and the need to safeguard intangible cultural heritage and to communicate its value for sustainable development. The current study presents an example of digital storytelling utilization in a preschool class to raise awareness on sustainability issues. A linear digital storytelling was created, representing a local myth about watermills, then an educational intervention was conducted, where the myth’s digital representation was used as an educational tool to raise awareness on local cultural heritage and sustainability issues and also as an example to inspire and guide teachers and students to create their own stories. Results showed that the digital storytelling was an effective educational tool to the acquisition of new knowledge and the motivation of preschool children’s interest about the cultural asset of watermills and that the production of digital storytelling is feasible in the class context. These findings prove the potential of digital storytelling and mobile technology by using low-cost devices and applying simple techniques in preschool education.

The Creation

This paper describes the development of a systematic approach to the creation, management and curation of linguistic resources, particularly spoken language corpora. It also presents first steps towards a framework for continuous quality control to be used within external research projects by non-technical users, and discuss various domain and discipline specific problems and individual solutions. The creation of spoken language corpora is not only a time-consuming and costly process, but the created resources often represent intangible cultural heritage, containing recordings of, for example, extinct languages or historical events. Since high quality resources are needed to enable re-use in as many future contexts as possible, researchers need to be provided with the necessary means for quality control. We believe that this includes methods and tools adapted to Humanities researchers as non-technical users, and that these methods and tools need to be developed to support existing tasks and goals of research projects.
