Digital Humanities Assignment Design

Date
Fri February 13th 2015, 3:30 - 4:30pm
Location
Pigott Hall (Bldg. 260), Room 252

Speaker(s): Jesse Stommel

This workshop will explore methods and approaches for designing assignments that leverage digital tools for humanistic inquiry. We'll look at several digital humanities assignments as examples, but the workshop will also raise larger interdisciplinary questions. We will talk about when and how to assess digital projects. Much of our work in education resists being formulated as neat and tidy outcomes. When learning is the goal, space should be left for wonder and experimentation.
