Popis: International audience; In this paper I will treat some theoretical and practical aspects of the digital information system I created to allow master’s students to produce, analyze and visualize historical data. This generic personal information system was created in the context of the symogih.org project and conceived to allow storing all sorts of historical information. It not only uses community maintained, solid technologies like PostgreSQL and R, but also demonstrates to students the importance of data modeling using concepts that are applied in widely shared models like the Text encoding initiative and CIDOC-CRM.In the paper, I not only present some results and issues that the use of the information system raises for both students and teacher, but also discuss the implications of this pedagogical approach for placing digital historical research in the context of linked open data and collaborative data production and curation.
