A lesson plan outlining a two-part activity that establishes a framework within which students productively wrestle with the place of generative AI in their learning and writing processes, thereby creating the space for instructor and students to arrive at a collective agreement about the use of these tools in the course grounded in a clear set of…[Read more]

A high percentage of theatrical prints and manuscripts from the aurisecular period have never been transcribed in an analogical or, of course, digital format. It is therefore impossible to use these documents to carry out searches of our interest or for the valuable computer analyses (stylometry, topic modelling, sentiment analysis, etc.) that…[Read more]

TEXORO: Textos del Siglo de Oro es una herramienta desarrollada por Álvaro Cuéllar y Germán Vega que permite realizar búsquedas en un amplio corpus de teatro del Siglo de Oro. Es nuestra intención que un futuro crezca ofreciendo otros tipos de textos fuera del ámbito teatral.
