Description: This is an undergraduate DH project panel presentation moderated by me, Desiree Dighton, Ph.D., Assistant Professor of English, Marist College, Poughkeepsie, NY. In this panel, I’ll introduce the exigence of these projects, an NEH CARES grant to support online undergraduate DH, especially during the COVID 19 pandemic. In accordance with my own research interests and experience with DH, the course takes a decolonial/disrupt DH approach, tapping into readings and methodologies that question power dynamics inherent in our technologies and lived experiences. The presentation will feature walk-throughs of several student projects created with a variety of digital tools such as Omeka, Wordpress, Google MyMaps, Timeline JS, and TAGS for Twitter. In these student-led talks, undergraduate participants will discuss their collaborative project creation process as upper-level humanities students from a variety of disciplines, all relatively new to digital methods and newbies to the theories and practices in DH.
