The rapid development and application of information and communication technology has triggered the so-called "digital revolution". The social and cultural context in which humanities scholars live has also undergone earth-shaking changes. Their original research tools and methods, as well as the conceptual framework for thinking about problems and the standards for judging the quality of academic research, have also faced increasing challenges. The "paradigm shift" in humanities research seems to be underway. Therefore, this research room intends to combine digital technology experts and scholars in the humanities field to jointly explore how to use digital technology and digital content to conduct humanities research in order to establish a new research paradigm. In addition, we also hope to jointly explore the impact of digital technology on human society and civilization, and reflect on how to respond.
資訊與通訊科技的快速發展與運用已引發了所謂的「數位革命」，人文學者所棲處的社會與文化情境也有了天翻地覆的改變，其原本慣習的研究工具與研究方法，乃至思考問題的概念架構，以及判斷學術品質良窳高下的標準，也已面臨日益增加的挑戰，人文研究的「典範轉移」似乎正在進行之中。因此，本研究室擬結合數位科技的專家與人文領域的學者，共同探索如何利用數位科技與數位內容進行人文研究，以建立新的研究典範。此外，我們也希望能共同探索數位科技對於人類社會與文明所帶來的衝擊，並省思因應之道。
