This workshop is a year-long, collaborative learning experience dedicated to supporting graduate students in the development of digital humanities skills and pedagogical practices. Workshop sessions will include a range of theoretical discussion, hands-on tool learning, guest faculty speakers, and course conceptualization. At the end of the workshop, each participant will have completed the design of a course syllabus. Hosted by the Alice Kaplan Institute for the Humanities, the workshop provides Northwestern humanities graduate students the opportunity to learn technological skills; conceptualize and collaborate on research and pedagogy projects; and participate in interdisciplinary seminars and discussions.
