Abstract

This article discusses the creation of the Portuguese version of Programming Historian (PtH), an open repository of digital humanities methodologies that offers training sessions on digital tools. It details the process of translation, adaptation, and student engagement through international collaboration, and explores the practical application of lessons in courses taught at (Anonimizado) (Lisbon, Portugal) and (Anonimizado) (Rio de Janeiro, Brazil). The article analyzes students’ digital literacy and the impacts of using PtH, highlighting the essential interconnection between research, teaching, and technology, especially in a context of digital transformations. Its goal is to promote interdisciplinary debate and a more hands-on approach to learning while reflecting on the importance of Digital Humanities in higher education.
