Digital Humanities as Interdisciplinary Collaboration: Perspectives on Co-Teaching and Co-Researching across the Humanities/Computer Science Divide

Professors Marion Thain, Liberal Studies and English, and Deena Engel, Computer Science, will discuss their co-teaching, what makes it successful, and why collaboration in pedagogy is key to digital humanities. They will address questions such as:

• How to make team teaching effective
• pedagogical methodologies
• evaluating course success
• Tips for scholars wanting to incorporate computational thinking into their teaching
• How their own teaching has changed over the years that they've been co-teaching, bringing the "digital" and the "humanities" together
• How their teaching connects with their research and publication practice

Presenters: 

• Marion Thain, Clinical Assistant Professor (Liberal Studies and English), Associate Director of Digital Humanities
• Deena Engel, Clinical Professor and Associate Director of Undergraduate Studies for the Computer Science Minors programs
