This document discusses how adapting social science methods to humanities research can create opportunities for interaction between humanists and social scientists. It proposes that an interdisciplinary center could facilitate such collaboration. The center would provide a physical and virtual space for structured discussions and informal meetings between representatives from various disciplines, including talks, workshops, mentorship and training. This would support new interdisciplinary research questions, methodologies, innovations and knowledge sharing through both planned interactions and "accidental" meetings between collaboration-ready scholars from different fields.

This document discusses digital literacies from multiple perspectives. It explores how digital literacies are situated social practices that vary between individuals and contexts rather than stable skills. Frameworks that try to categorize digital literacies into taxonomies are problematic as the skills involved are constantly changing. The experiences of students are diverse based on factors like discipline and available resources. Understanding students' digital literacy practices can help evaluate policies and support students' expertise rather than focus on deficits.
Digital Scholarship in the Humanities & Social Sciences
This document discusses common themes in digital scholarship across various disciplines like the humanities, social sciences, health sciences, and areas of digital scholarship within the humanities and social sciences. It also addresses challenges with evaluating digital scholarship for tenure and promotion using traditional frameworks and guidelines. Key areas of digital scholarship discussed include examining digital objects, digital pedagogy, digital scholarly communication, and digital collections and archives. However, digital scholarship is often still seen as less rigorous than traditional published work and lacks standards for evaluation.

The MOOC Moment: Experiments in Scale and Access in Higher Education
This document discusses issues related to online education and MOOCs. It touches on several key topics:
- The need to consider technology as material and situated rather than virtual and universal. Technologies promote particular political values and require labor.
- Questions around how we define learning and the potential conflicts between formal and informal learning. There may be opportunities if these are approached productively.
- The importance of learning from failure through reparative work and examining broken systems rather than concepts like grit.
- The potential for shared resources and distributed dialogue to encourage learning across institutions through signature video dialogues, narrative projects, and other collaborative efforts.
- The management of copresence in online spaces and the role
Watch listen Learn: Understanding the undergraduate research process through ...
For higher education students, learning can happen anytime and anywhere, however not much is known about how students actually conduct research. A User eXperience (UX) approach, which deploys an anthropological lens, has typically focussed on how library users are interacting with space and services. In this paper I will present the findings of an ethnographic study which shifted the traditional focus of UX to understand how students are engaging with the research process. Using participant observation, behavioural maps, student diaries and retrospective interviews, I was provided with unique access that enabled me to capture the behaviours of these students in their own environments. The research examined the practice of undergraduate research both inside and outside the library walls and found that the research process can be influenced by a number of factors including age, experience, work commitments, family, peer, academic and library anxiety.
I was acutely aware of my responsibility as a researcher to build trust and honesty with the students. Working so closely with them enabled me to discover patterns in their research behaviour, discuss their approach to research and identify gaps in support. This was collaborative ethnography; as I observed research practice, I was able to provide instant advice to help them improve their research skills. In addition, I have discussed my findings with academic colleagues and together we have been making improvements to undergraduate study skills modules. This paper will discuss how an ethnographic approach has informed my professional practice and ultimately improved how I deliver research skills support to undergraduate students. I will also reflect on the role ethnography can play in empowering librarians to perform a leading research role within their own institutions.
Digital Humanities
Digital humanities uses computing technologies to conduct and present humanities research. It involves investigating, analyzing, synthesizing, and presenting information in digital formats. The document discusses how digital humanities is being used in English departments, including for electronic literature, text analysis, and data mining large text corpora. It provides examples of digital humanities projects and argues that digital humanities is needed to foster collaboration, adapt to technological changes, and support interdisciplinary work at the intersection of humanities and computing fields.

The document reflects on queering law and sexuality from the perspective of Professor Chris Ashford. It discusses his personal and academic journey studying this topic since the 1990s, from his time as an undergraduate questioning why certain topics weren't being discussed, to his current focus areas of research including public sex, sex work, and barebacking. It addresses the shifting conceptions of self and sexuality within law, and encourages future researchers to engage with these important issues.
Digicraft and 'Systemic' Thinking in Digital Humanities
Digicraft and 'Systemic' Thinking in Digital HumanitiesLaboratorio di Cultura Digitale, labcd.humnet.unipi.it
This document summarizes discussions from several presentations at the DH2016 conference on defining digital humanities. It notes that digital humanities projects require interdisciplinary collaboration across competencies like history, public history, and technology skills. Effective projects are organized like Renaissance workshops, with students and scholars exchanging skills under a shared vision. The document argues for a unified, systemic vision of digital humanities that sees relationships between fields rather than rigid boundaries, reflecting how digital tools have changed research practices. This "unifying vision" represents an opportunity for digital humanities to define its social purpose.Plenary sessions: the power of digital for change - Jisc Digifest 2016

Designing the Digital Humanities Library Lab @ Leuven (DH3L)
This document discusses the design of the Library Lab at the University of Ghent. It begins by defining digital humanities as involving three groups: programmers, scholars, and libraries/repositories. It then discusses the role of libraries in digital humanities, including preservation, digitization, discovery/dissemination, and managing data. Reasons for having a digital humanities center are given, such as collecting expertise, enabling funding/stability for projects, and fostering collaboration. Digital humanities centers provide training, workshops, collections, tools, research support, and act as hubs connecting technology and scholars. Some centers are based in libraries. The document concludes by introducing the new Library Lab at the University of Ghent.

Conole harnessing media
Harnessing new media for learning, teaching, and research. New technologies allow for more personalized and immersed learning. Learners are drawn to technologies but still rely on traditional methods. New media provides opportunities to reach more learners effectively through tools like social media, but this requires new digital literacies. Educators should rethink design with a focus on activities and experiences over just content. Blended real and virtual spaces can enhance conferences, networking, and publishing through collaboration and community building.

Digital Humanities at Small Liberal Arts Colleges
Digital methodologies and new media are changing the landscape of research and teaching in the humanities. Scholars can now computationally analyze entire corpora of texts or preserve and share materials through digital archives. Students can engage in authentic applied research linking literary texts to place or study Shakespeare in a virtual Globe Theater. Such developments collectively fall under the name “digital humanities,” which includes the humanities and humanistic social sciences and has largely been characterized by computing-intensive, collaborative, interdisciplinary projects at research institutions. Faculty, staff and students at small liberal arts colleges, however, are making significant contributions to the digital humanities, especially by engaging undergraduates both in and out of the classroom. Rebecca Frost Davis, Program Officer for the Humanities at the National Institute for Technology in Liberal Education (NITLE), will introduce the digital humanities landscape and share examples from small liberal arts colleges.

Christian Lauersen discusses what makes a great library place. He argues that libraries should be workshops for research and cultivate thorough learning. A great library provides an open platform for education and events using digital methods, hardware, software for data analysis and visualization. It offers a dynamic, inspiring learning environment. The most valuable asset is not furniture but the librarian and users. Facilitation of activities like digital methods sessions and data sprints helps build community. A sense of belonging is important. Libraries support different kinds of learning in an alternative setup to the classic. Key to success is the evolving network between the library, universities, and other institutions. Challenges include defining the library's role and positioning itself in the research environment.

The document emphasizes principles like collaboration and using projects to engage students in digital scholarship.
What is DH? And What’s it Doing at the Claremont Colleges?
In this presentation, Alex Juhasz, Director of the Mellon DH Grant and Professor of Media Studies at Pitzer College, along with Ashley Sanders, Digital Scholarship Librarian and DH specialist, will describe
(1) what the digital humanities is (and digital scholarship more broadly)
(2) the opportunities the Mellon DH grant and the Claremont Colleges Library provide for faculty and students to learn more, and
(3) present a snapshot of some of the exciting work already happening at the 7Cs.

- 1. Adapting Social Science Methods to Humanities Research: Creating Opportunities for Interaction between Humanists and Social Scientists Dr. Lynne Siemens siemensl@uvic.ca MLA, January 2013
- 2. The Social Scientist on the Panel • By way of introduction (or perhaps even confession) • Management Scholar • Appointment in a School of Public Administration, University of Victoria • Interested in ways that Humanists, especially Digital Humanists, collaborate with those inside and outside their disciplines • How do these interactions create and support new research questions and methodologies? • How do we create opportunities for the necessary discussions?
- 3. One Possibility : The Interdisciplinary Centre • Examples • Centre for Research in the Arts, Social Sciences and Humanities (Cambridge) • Digital Humanities Center for Japanese Arts and Cultures (Kyoto) • Department of Digital Humanities, King’s College (London) • Maryland Institute for Technology and the Humanities (College Park) • Electronic Textual Cultures Lab (University of Victoria) • And many more (see http://digitalhumanities.org/centernet/) • Commonalities • Representation of many disciplines, within and beyond the Humanities, including Social Sciences, Computer Science, Engineering and many others • Intellectual hub for speakers, research projects, training, tools, resources, collaboration • Virtual and physical spaces • And perhaps even coffee and comfortable chairs
- 4. The Interdisciplinary Centre: Format • Space for discussion and networks • Structured interactions between Social Scientists and Humanists • Talks, speakers and workshops grounded in a variety of disciplinary perspectives • Mentorship, training and guidance to graduate students and researchers interested in learning methodologies beyond their specific disciplinary ones • Informal and “accidental” meetings • Often the foundation to interdisciplinary innovation, collaboration and knowledge sharing • Reinforces the need for a coffee machine and comfortable chairs
- 5. The Interdisciplinary Centre: People • Those who represent many disciplines • Both the obvious and the not so • Those who are collaboration-ready • Interested in working with others • Interested in other disciplinary perspectives • Faculty, researchers, students and many others
