This session was proposed and moderated by Michelle Moravec. Some of these notes were taken from the shared Google Doc for the session
Curricular transformation question as opposed to a pedagogical question
How are you differentiating between a project and an assignment?
How do you align course outcomes with digital assignments?
Misconceptions: DH projects are “fun” as opposed to work
Class assignment ideas:
Lauren Fonseca's students use Wikispaces to create end of term work
Group work rubrics are established and they are graded based on their goals.
Wikipedia: What would you add to this page to make it more credible?
Immediate rebuttal if you post something inappropriate
Wikipedia is very useful for background information and the genesis of secondary research
Student familiarity is also important
If you are going to try to have your students use a program, make sure you as the instructor know how to use it or support it.
Faculty should always begin small. Big myth that digital is easy.
Some potential platforms...
Scaffolding projects
Create accessible moments within each project.
