Project One, lead by Nirmal Trivedi, is a re-design of Georgia Tech’s first-year reading program — a hybrid experience focused around a common reading (The Truth of Fact, The Truth of Feeling by Ted Chiang) and […]

Domain of One’s Own, an initiative out of the University of Mary Washington and lead by Jim Groom, Tim Owens, and Martha Burtis, provides a unique opportunity to promote digital literacies and the principles of […]

Janine, John, and I (@allistelling) would like to engage THATCampers in a play session — part Twitter game, part investigation of the Twitter hashtag aggregator Nurph. After a brief description of #TvsZ, the game […]

If “connectivism” as a learning theory is new to your eyes, MOOCs are probably not. Though most of the attention trained on MOOCs in the last two years have been focused on the x-brand (Coursera, Udacity, edX), […]

Sat, 09 Mar 2013 15:01:57 +0000

I would like to examine, discuss, and debate the benefits of continuing to publish academic work behind pay walls, logins, or other restrictions. I understand that there are some — I just want to take the […]

The Chronicle of Higher Education began a series last week titled “College, Reinvented“. In addition to 15 thought provoking articles suggesting how higher education should change (for instance “Grades Out, Badges […]

Sat, 10 Mar 2012 13:48:30 +0000

Experiential learning submerges a class in applied activities that dissolve the boundary between the academy and whatever’s beyond it. Whether as focused simulations, individual ethnographic projects, or […]

These things are definitely related. However, would combining them thin out the foundational design principles inherent in your original proposal? My understanding, which might be very green, is that site design […]

Sorry to add on but . . . I also have a brand new interest in how Drupal works, so talking in a session or outside of one about the most essential things for a new Drupal user to know would also be helpful for me. […]

I worry that, at this point, I have nearly voted for everything I have seen, but that’s because reading the session proposals has been like going to a huge book sale where all the books are both good and free: I […]

Thu, 03 Mar 2011 13:45:15 +0000

This sounds very interesting to me because of its focus on methodology. While I may or may not find the final outcome of your project relevant to my own research or teaching, the thought process that you use to […]

Ian, your session sounds like something that too often gets ignored. Currently I teach with students immersed in technology, but for most of my career I have had students who are average or below in the comfort […]

I have lots of interest in Zotero, especially in its teaching functionality. I would be really interested in going to this session.

It sounds plenty useful to me. The 3-minute cap is crucial.

I am also very interested in this topic, academically and personally. I find that, as much as technology offers me as an academic and social person, it has a soulnessness that adds up over time. I’ve wondered […]

This may seem like too obvious of an assertion, but the problem Robin is raising is a digital version of a reality in the academy for years: teaching counts for peanuts up against research. Some institutions try […]

I am at the tail end of my diss. and have often considered how technology affected (or could or should) my process. I would have some things to add here, but mostly would enjoy listening.

Ah. Michael, you are speaking my language because a) I am new to DH and b) those questions you raise remind of me of a concept I have heard and considered a ton, but not much inside the DH discourse: hegemony. Is […]

Cool Carl! I am not well versed in Sakai, beyond the version my institution has branded and made available. I am sure that Sakai can do more, but our version always looks like the online equivalent of a bunch of […]

I would thoroughly enjoy this discussion and, should we have it, will be glad that I’ve had time to look up sources to justify a position. Thanks for suggesting it Roger and Andy.
