IDPT 19916 - An Introduction to Digital Humanities

Course Credit: 1
Maximum Credit: 0
(GMDS)
AN INTRODUCTION TO DIGITAL HUMANITIES Can a machine tell me what books are about? What happens when we can visualize literary movements? Can we teach computers to read? When we apply digital research methods or digital modes of thought to our humanistic questions, we’re engaged in a burgeoning field broadly conceived as Digital Humanities (DH). In this introductory course we will explore the discourses of DH, we will experiment with digital tools and research methods, and we will become practicing digital humanists through a critical engagement with those tools, methods, and discourses.
