Challenges

Challenge 1

  • Challenge: As we progressed, we realized the scope of our analysis was too broad to be effectively managed within the project timeline.

  • Correction: We narrowed our focus to specific cancer types (lung, colorectal, breast) and key demographic factors (age, sex, race). This adjustment allowed us to provide a more detailed and focused analysis, enhancing the depth and clarity of our findings.

Challenge 2

  • Challenge: Integrating digital humanities perspectives into a primarily data-driven analysis was initially challenging, as it required balancing quantitative data with qualitative insights.

  • Correction: We adjusted our approach by embedding historical and socio-cultural narratives into our visualizations and interpretations. This shift enriched our project, making it more interdisciplinary and reflective of digital humanities principles.
