assessment – THATCamp Digital Pedagogy ATX 2015 http://dpatx.thatcamp.org Just another THATCamp site Thu, 25 Feb 2016 19:12:55 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=4.9.12 Session Proposal: Additional DH Objectives or Learning Outcomes for Core Courses http://dpatx.thatcamp.org/2015/11/05/dh-objectives/ Thu, 05 Nov 2015 13:51:18 +0000 http://dpatx.thatcamp.org/?p=232

What supplemental objectives or learning outcomes might be added to core courses incorporating digital humanities?

This question is meant to focus discussions on pedagogy toward a practical end. At both the undergraduate and graduate level, much of what is done in the college and university classrooms often reflects concern with assessments that echo course objectives/outcomes and align with program requirements and accreditation justification. Do objectives for undergraduate courses–English 1302, for example–need updating to enable one to incorporate digital humanities into the pedagogical repertoire?

I would like to explore how strategies for teaching through and/or learning with digital humanities might already coordinate logically with existing objectives/outcomes and how objectives/outcomes might need to be expanded or tweaked so that courses may be refurbished and made more relevant to students.
