"Besides eluding a common definition, the digital humanities often shake traditional conventions around pedagogy, instruction, and learning. But is this a negative attribute? How else can new frontiers of research morph and adapt to current constructs of instruction when they, themselves, are meant to challenge what we think we know and how we approach new research methodologies?
In this session, we’ll talk about various approaches to supporting digital humanities and broader digital scholarship using conventional and unconventional tools, and dig deeper into the discussion of where experimentation ends and instruction begins (and vice versa).
Our speakers are grounded in both new and traditional approaches to digital scholarship and how to enable the use of digital tools in support of text analysis. While speaking on curriculum for digital humanities as taught through their coursework, they’ll also discuss the tactile support of digital scholarship at their institutions in greater detail. Audience participation and sharing of experience will be encouraged as a broad array of perspectives will spur dialogue and help foster ideas. "
