Thu, 14 Jan 2010 15:55:45 +0000

This sounds similar to Dennie Eagleson’s project and building local history and culture resources with the tools available is of great interest to me. There seems to be at least one strong thread forming around […]

I found Omeka to be a terrific learning tool as well. However, we did run into problems regarding copyright for the materials that students assembled as well as with permissions to make student work public. I […]

Tue, 12 Jan 2010 01:12:37 +0000

I’m curious about the kinds of digital stories you are looking at. Who are the authors and what is the context in which they embarked on digital storytelling? What motivates the narrators? Where and how do they […]

Tue, 12 Jan 2010 01:02:57 +0000

There is a lot of potential in the link between social media and new approaches to visualizing data and the democratization (certainly a concern of humanities) of policy and planning. Quality of access may be a […]

While you have a little of an edge age wise, unless you were using that computer in high school, I still remember those IBM cards. I’m interested in what can be done to minimize the pain as well. Although your […]
