The Webinar is intended for everyone planning to teach Transkribus. It aims to train both new and experienced Transkribus users to teach Transkribus to undergraduate and graduate students, researchers, staff working in the GLAM sector and volunteers on crowdsourcing projects.
The Webinar will be divided into two sessions. The first will explain in-depth the new Transkribus web app, how to train text recognition, baseline and fields models and all the available features. Even if you have attended a Train the Trainers Webinar in the past, it might be helpful to participate in the first session (Monday, the 25th of September) to learn what is new in the web app.
The second session will focus on the best ways to teach Transkribus, how to organise a workshop, what teaching and learning materials are already available, and how Transkribus can be used to engage students and volunteers. During the second session, we will also present Transkribus Learn, a tool for learning how to read old handwriting.
The first session is on Monday, the 25th of September, from 14.00 to 17.30 CEST.
The second session is on Tuesday, the 26th of September, from 14.00 PM to 17.30 CEST.

The number of participants will be limited for the webinar to be productive and to have time to ask questions and discuss. If requests exceed the available places, we will be happy to organise another webinar in the following months.
