It’s important for a balanced teaching diet!
We’re planning a monthly-ish digital pedagogy series in the spirit of the #DHMakes Methodz talks. Free, open to the public, on zoom. The series will be built around paired 30 minute Zoom sessions where one person presents for 5 minutes (max!) followed by 25 minutes of discussion. The presentations can cover a wide variety of topics: a tool that is new to you, a teaching tip, pedagogical concept, assignment, your syllabus for a DH course, etc. Really anything you have found that moves you or your students in the classroom, that has worked well or failed utterly. And we are very interested in perspectives from folks in all different kinds of positions and institutional contexts - higher ed, K-12, administrators, cultural heritage workers, and more. After the session, each speaker will submit a short one-page (max) version of their five-minute presentation that we’ll collect into a crowdsourced, citable web publication of bite-sized DH pedagogical goodness.
Please fill out this form to indicate your interest in participating! We’ll plan on just a few sessions to start and evaluate how things are going from there. We’ll follow up for more info and scheduling after the new year. You’re of course free to fill this out to stay in the loop if you don’t want to present, but we know you have something to share (nudge nudge)
