We would like to share our Call for Proposals to participate in the full-day DARIAH VCC2 workshop\u00a0\u201cInnovative Teaching Methods and Practices in Digital Humanities\u201d\u00a0<\/b>on July 7 at the Digital Humanities Conference 2014 in Lausanne.<\/p>\n
With this workshop, we would like to encourage the participants – and, consequently, the DH community at large – to share their thoughts and ideas on how the development of a digital pedagogy for digital humanities should proceed.\u00a0We are encouraging proposals from both long-time practitioners of DH and recent adopters with innovative ideas, methods and interest in digital humanities pedagogy. We are looking for thoughtful and creative contributions that will be surprising, enlightening and inspirational. We are interested not only in what works but also what doesn’t \u2014 and what we can learn from failed experiments.<\/p>\n
The workshop will be divided into two sessions:<\/p>\n
In the morning session, participants will have the opportunity to present their ideas and\/or actual teaching methods and materials.<\/p>\n
The afternoon session will provide a forum for the participants to discuss the most\u00a0prominent challenges and issues in (digital) teaching of DH as well as the necessary next steps in promoting DH through digital pedagogy.<\/p>\n
