Week Four goals


In the fourth week of the MarineLives Summer Transcription Programme we will:

(1) Review and edit the transcriptions done by each team member in week three

(2) Discuss tricky words and expressions team members have come across

(3) Do a further two pages of transcription each, this week chosen again from HCA 13/68

(4) Develop search strategies to find and synthesise material on the Three Silver Ships project and review progress to date in terms of generating new content




One to One calls to be held with each team member


There will be no Sunday Skype call this week for either Team One or Team Two

Colin will set up 1:1 calls with each team member lasting roughly 30 minutes each to review week Three and Week Two transcriptions, and to look together at the transcriptions allocated for this week; to discuss palaeographical issues; and to explore search strategies for the Three Silver Ships project
