During 2019 I held a online seminar at the HU Berlin introducing the idea of books as knowledge reservoirs. The seminar was part of a project called Vielfalt der Wissensformen funded by the Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung.

It had to be fully online due to Covid and had a strong component on interactive programming. Students used breakout rooms to go through prepared jupyter notebooks and solved collaboratively questions related to aspexts of topic modelling, network analytics and more.

Roughly half of the seminar notes can be found as a jupyter book over at github: Books as Knowledge Reservoirs
