Digital Scholarship Reading Group In-Person

As part of the emerging digital scholarship program, we invite faculty, staff, and graduate students to participate in a monthly digital scholarship reading group. Led by Alicia Peaker, the new Digital Scholarship Specialist, the reading group will serve as an open forum for learning and critically assessing the plurality of digital approaches to scholarship. Because digital scholarship discussions develop in many different types of venues, readings will be drawn from a wide range of genres including book chapters, peer-reviewed articles, digital projects, and published blog posts.

 

We welcome those new to the field, seasoned experts, and everyone who falls in between.

 

Dates, topics, and readings may change after the first session based on participants' schedules and interests. Potential topics may include: public digital scholarship, spatial analysis, digital pedagogy, feminist digital scholarship,  digital materiality, visualizing data, global digital humanities, peer review of digital projects, or assessing digital scholarship for tenure and promotion.
