Digital Humanities Seminar: Final Pitch Presentations, Part 2

This experimental seminar is devoted to learning about and developing Digital Humanities (DH) project proposals. This week's seminar is part two of the final pitch presentations. Audience will include members of the Hariri Institute's Steering Committee, directors and staff from DH&I, Educational Technology, and IS&T, plus outside consultants and software developers. The seminar meets weekly during the Fall 2016 semester; participants include faculty, graduate students, and resource people. Meetings consist of guided discussion with experienced DH practitioners and software engineers; topics include audience, types of data, interactivity, submission, and sustainability. Participants learn about developing a DH project from the ground up, explore ideas with other seminar participants, and work towards developing a DH proposal. The two final meetings of the seminar are devoted to presenting project pitches. Regular participation is limited to applicants selected.
