"Digital Publishing in the Humanities Classroom"
Instructors:
Dr. Andie Silva, Professor of English (York College) and Digital Humanities (CUNY Graduate Center)
zelda montes, CUNY Graduate Center
This workshop will explore best practices for immersing students in archival, editorial, and analytical practices that privilege agency, self-discovery, and research-driven writing. Using approaches and tools such as TEI, Scalar, and Hypothesis, we will discuss how to scope, support, and evaluate projects that incorporate digital publishing into a variety of teaching environments. Discussion will be oriented around how to approach public-facing student projects in ways that are mindful of ethical, privacy, and accessibility considerations. Participants will collaborate on designing and scaffolding assignments, consider methods for assessment, and collectively build a repository of resources, links, and prompts.
Max Participants: 25
