An introduction to the digital humanities, work in a variety of humanities disciplines--literature, art, philosophy, theology, and history--that involves computer assistance in conducting or presenting research. This includes, for example, digitizing, markup, editing, publishing, archiving, analyzing, visualization, modeling, interpretive gaming, and instructional and interface design. This course will emphasize research questions and methods from a range of humanities disciplines--not computer technology per se but ways that computing can further humanities research agendas.
Outcomes: Knowledge of how computing affects research in humanities, critical thinking about technology and humanities, awareness of broad social and ethical questions surrounding old and new, print and digital, media in
contemporary culture.
