A Digital Humanities Reading Circle From Conceptualization to Implementation

In an effort to encourage faculty interest in digital pedagogy projects, I recently worked alongside our Faculty Director of Core Curriculum and an instructional librarian to facilitate launch of a "Digital Pedagogies in the Humanities Reading Circle" at Butler University. Our kick-off roster included nine faculty members, three librarians, and four staff members; and our chosen book, Digital Humanities in the Classroom: A Practical Introduction for Teachers, Lecturers, and Students (Battershill & Ross, 2017), proved long on practical advice and short on theory, making it nicely suited to our reading circle’s goals.
In this 20-minute presentation, I will report on the progress of our reading circle and share our model, both its merits and faults, with those wanting to try something similar at their institutions.

Speaker: Megan M. Grady of Butler University
