This seminar will focus on the process of creating, evaluating, and implementing digital history for teaching, research, and museum purposes. The course readings, workshops, and discussions will expose students to the history of information technologies as well the philosophical, practical, and controversial aspects of the emerging field of Digital History. The course will also involve hands-on production and evaluation of digital history projects, including the UNH-produced HOSLAC website (History of Science in Latin America and the Caribbean, www.hoslac.org), as well as original student projects.
