collaborator: as a student scholar In this case, offer your student opportunities for coauthoring or copresenting C, for example, has done this with her collaborator Nicola Wilson and an undergraduate work-​study student who copresented a poster at the Oxford Digital Humanities Summer School In the case of student work that is published formally—​that is, copyright is somehow handed over, even if it is just through a Creative Commons license—​you may have to ask students to sign release forms (In the Web Companion, under “Sample student work,” for example, you can access the Student Permissions Form that S created for her students when she asked them to share their course work in the Web Companion.) Other opportunities outside the formal classroom, including study abroad, internships, and scholarships, can be highly beneficial to students regardless of whether they are interested in pursuing further research after their studies Universities often have undergraduate research funds for travel to archives, conferences, or workshops, so seek out these opportunities for students who have shown extraordinary interest in the project or whose work is of exceptionally high quality Use your disciplinary knowledge to identify special opportunities; S, for example, has located study-​abroad funds so that a student interested in World War I poetry can participate in the creation of a digital edition out of the texts assembled at a new archive of poet Ivor Gurney Because this student has developed DH skills, she will be able to connect with advanced scholars of World War I literature to whom she would not otherwise have access This is an example of extending to your students the ability to make things count more than once Once you have branched out beyond pedagogical uses of DH tools and into DH research, and you have given students credit for their own original research, you will undoubtedly desire some well-​deserved credit for your own labors Making your digital pedagogy and research “count” is a crucial, but somewhat complex, aspect of DH We not wish to delve into the nitty-​gritty details here (in the Web Companion materials for Chapter 12, look under the heading “Does digital scholarship count?” to find more information about this issue), we want to reassure that receiving credit for digital work is rapidly becoming the norm in academia Whether you are a graduate student, fellow, adjunct, lecturer, professor, or administrator—​you will be able to make your DH work count if you are able to articulate how and why these activities satisfy the contractual terms of your employment As Jason Mittell explains in a blog post, “framing matters,” and so it is crucial “to give departments and committees references and analogues that are more familiar, while highlighting what makes digital scholarship unique and important” (par 13) As you frame your activities in ways that explain how they fit into your service, teaching, or research commitments, consult any set of guidelines produced by professional organizations and higher education institutions in your field for evaluating digital scholarship These 207 CONNECTING TO YOUR RESEARCH 207 guidelines are powerful resources because they forge connections between digital labor and traditional academic labor and they show how to prove the quality and impact of your work A guide to these guidelines is also in the Web Companion, where we also link to S’s blog posts for MLACommons, which may be of interest to scholars in language and literature disciplines Conclusion In this chapter, we have outlined a natural progression from digital pedagogy to DH research From publishing on your teaching experiences to publishing research as you apply your DH pedagogy skills to your disciplinary work, and from finding ways to involve students in DH research to treating your students as fellow researchers and collaborators, there are many ways to connect your explorations in teaching with new technologies with your disciplinary research Although good teaching does not require an active research agenda, many teachers feel additionally rewarded by their efforts to use DH in the classroom when they apply these labors to scholarship And remember that making these connections will not only help your career or further your research agenda: it will also strengthen your students’ knowledge of how your discipline works and how they can apply their work in the humanities to other courses and to their future educational and vocational endeavors Further reading Anderson, Deborah Lines, editor Digital Scholarship in the Tenure, Promotion, and Review Process Routledge, 2015 Anderson, Katrina, et al

2/​225 209 Conclusion Now that you have found new ways to incorporate digital technologies thoughtfully into your humanities courses, let us consider what your classroom might look like today A cluster of students has gathered around a computer, conducting spur-​of-​the-​moment research This group occasionally turns to a student, sitting nearby, to offer new ideas for searches to conduct on an online archive Another student breaks off from the cluster to communicate the fruits of their labor to a trio drawing tables and figures on the whiteboard Once the whiteboard fills, a group runner comes to you, bringing you over to inspect their work You offer a few suggestions, walk over to the group at the computer to praise their research, then return to your own station to display a video clip that a shy student, having been working quietly in a corner, has shared on your course Twitter stream Another group rushes into the room, brandishing smartphones on which they have taken photographs that the team at the whiteboard had sent them off to take As the students leave for the day, they chat about their plans to complete the assignment over the weekend as you take pictures of the tables and figures on the whiteboard and upload them onto your course wiki By now, this sample class session—​which incorporates a broad palette of approaches elaborated in this book—​should seem fairly natural, even if it is a departure from your previous analog methods Admittedly, perhaps none of these configurations quite capture the social and spatial features of your own teaching experience Maybe instead of a bright, well-​stocked room designed to facilitate discussion, you’re assigned a cramped room in a basement, where squirrels can easily climb in through the windows and, in the December gloom, there is an aspect to the light that makes the students drowsy Sometimes, a projector bulb will burn out just as you begin to explore a nifty visualization, or an activity will produce results that you are quite eager to erase from the board But because you have learned how to react flexibly and constructively to the constraints and opportunities that inevitably emerge in each course session, and because you have learned how 210 210 USING DIGITAL HUMANITIES IN THE CL ASSROOM to take advantage of the resources you have available, you have no doubt begun to integrate exciting new classroom activities and assignments In this book, we have tried to give you the tools to so by grounding general approaches and abstract concepts in practical examples, sample templates, and troubleshooting techniques The ideas shared here, which introduce different intellectual configurations through the use of tools and technologies readily available to nearly everyone, are meant to offer opportunities for vibrant learning that satisfy your pedagogical goals and expand your teaching philosophy You may be satisfied to restrict your engagement with new digital tools to adopting and adapting activity prompts and assignment sheets or perhaps to following our instructions about building a course website If you want to go further than this introductory volume has led you, we hope that you will take up some of the many opportunities for experimentation that exist in this field Furthermore, don’t forget that exploring the pedagogical strategies described in this book can energize not only your course sessions but also reach beyond the walls of the classroom itself, transforming your own research and making your processes more efficient Having learned practical tips for incorporating digital humanities (DH) into your classroom from this book, experimentation and invention are the next steps Although the very act of using new DH tools in ways you’ve never done before is itself an act of experimentation, as we’ve discussed, you can take your own practice even further by pursuing training in more advanced digital skills (such as coding, textual encoding, physical computing, and GIS mapping) In order to facilitate creativity and innovation in course design, assignment implementation, and DH activities, you’ll probably want to learn more than we discuss here about what’s “under the hood” of various webpages, programs, and applications Taking online or in-​person courses on programming, app design, and archive building can even help you to create your own more sophisticated projects from scratch Return, if necessary, to the options for external resources for skill building related in Chapter 11, “Finding external support communities”—​a chapter that we particularly hope will act as a springboard for your own deeper explorations in DH Such innovation and experimentation can lead you in new directions for your own research S, for instance, has developed a suite of research on Henry James based on the skills and tools she asks her students to use in her survey of English literature She is using the processes she originally developed for her DIY Digital Edition assignment sheet (available in the Web Companion) to create a digital edition of the prefaces Henry James wrote for the collected edition of his works This process made her interested in textual studies, so she is now researching the print history of James’s fiction; textual studies may not immediately seem to constitute a “digital humanities” field in and of itself, but she would not have pursued this avenue of research without having experimented with digital tools Additionally, she has combined her interest in Twitter with her interest in James to write a series of papers on 211 CONCLUSION 211 the relationship between James’s writing style and contemporary writing practices in social media All of C’s experiments in DH have come with a healthy dose of skepticism about the field and a general tentativeness about adopting digital methods Indeed, she remains quiet on Twitter and still frequently uses flip chart paper just as often as Google Docs Her first minimal foray into digital pedagogy involved constructing course websites for her contemporary fiction classes (which were the first classes she taught as a graduate student) Having discovered the pleasure and excitement that students got out of features like the online gallery of student work and the extra readings and web resources she posted on the site, she began to think further about how the digital could involve itself in her teaching and research in a way that enhanced, rather than distracted from, her core disciplinary interests Since those first straightforward websites she has found tremendous advantage in collaborating with students on large-​scale digital research projects (crucially allowing for collaboration across international borders between colleagues and students all over the United Kingdom, the United States, and Canada) and in creating scholarly digital editions with students C still sees herself as first and foremost a writer and book historian, but DH continues to revitalize and expand the possibilities she can offer her students in terms of accessibility, diversity of assignments, and classroom experience Just as you’ll want to make full use of your digital explorations and apply your new skills to new contexts—​ perhaps even personal as well as professional—​ encourage your students to so as well A  software application they downloaded to satisfy your course requirements could be used to streamline their studying habits, add a new dimension to projects for another class, or add a new skill to their CV that can give them an advantage in the job market They could continue using the digital methods for collaboration that you have taught them in order to complete group work for another class, stay connected to friends and family, or facilitate their work for an internship If they have posted course work publicly online, they could cite this work in graduate school applications, use it as proof of their writing and design skills during an interview, or expand this digital resource into a full-​fledged digital portfolio of their work As your course draws to a close, urge your students to brainstorm further and future uses for their DH skills, outputs, tools, software downloads, and digital accounts, ensuring that the lessons learned in your class will continue to help them well after graduation We would like to leave you with two thoughts First of all, we hope you will be inspired to explore the Web Companion and follow the many suggestions in it that gesture far beyond the pages of this book and even beyond the immediate concerns of any one class you might be teaching We hope you’ll get out there, meet new colleagues both inside and outside of your institution, both in real life and on social networks online, and learn from them And once you have developed a robust network that can support 212 212 USING DIGITAL HUMANITIES IN THE CL ASSROOM your efforts, you’ll have all the tools you need to be truly bold about your teaching and, in turn, to allow others to benefit from your experiences and knowledge Second, we hope that in the midst of all that exploring, you’ll always remember that when it comes to teaching, DH approaches are most useful when they bring you back to your own pedagogy In other words, the digital humanities work best when they affirm the goals and facilitate the experiences that you want most for your students Ultimately, then, it’s not about mastering a particular encoding standard or acquiring a certain piece of equipment, but about finding new ways to put your teaching philosophy into action, pushing your own pedagogy further, and using DH approaches to enrich your discipline 213 INDEX Academia.edu 159, 182, 183 academic competencies 136 academic
