Libraries, archives, museums, the great repositories of the human past, make available sources that have enhanced how we learn subjects and make things. The vast digital collections on the Web have transformed the way we study the past achievements of humans, whether history, literature, philosophy, music, or art. In this course, students will learn the basic skills of researching a digital humanities project. These projects may include history exhibits; documentary videos; scenic designs for a play or opera; maps or models of fictional worlds. Students can choose to work individually, or collaboratively on small project teams.
