JSTOR Labs is seeking applications for our summer innovation fellows cohort! This could be an awesome fit for grad students who are interested in more jack-of-all-trades roles that bridge research and learning, design, and technology: http://labs.jstor.org/blog/innovation-fellows-2023/
Deadline is Feb 10! (it's a very easy app, just CV and cover letter)
"Beyond Projecting: Planning DH Course Projects that Work for You" Many instructors include digital projects as the logical final assignments in digital humanities courses. Doing so introduces a host of challenges, however, and it can become all too easy to feel committed to the idea of the digital project in a way that overwhelms our course goals, our students, and ourselves. From a practical standpoint, this workshop will explore ways to manage the logistics of planning for the incorporation of course-long digital projects into teaching. From a theoretical one, this session will examine our reasons for doing so and how better to fit our project plans to our teaching rather than the other way around. The session will be structured as a mix of lecture, discussion, and activities, and participants will come away with a clear sense of next steps for integrating digital projects into their courses. In our limited time, the workshop will aim to deliver a series of tools and activities that participants can take with them to work through as they plan their own courses. Topics covered will likely include learning goals, resource assessment, scaffolding, assignment strategy, and outcomes, all filtered through the lens of project management for teaching and learning.
