awards – Digital Campus https://digitalcampus.tv A discussion of how digital media and technology are affecting learning, teaching, and scholarship at colleges, universities, libraries, and museums. Mon, 23 Feb 2015 19:46:37 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=5.4.2 Podcast #111 – The Next Big Thing https://digitalcampus.tv/2015/02/podcast-111-the-next-big-thing/ https://digitalcampus.tv/2015/02/podcast-111-the-next-big-thing/#respond Mon, 23 Feb 2015 19:46:37 +0000 http://digitalcampus.tv/?p=1247 After a long break, our podcast regulars, Stephen Robertson and Mills Kelly, were led by Amanda French in our first 2015 podcast. After a quick check-in on their current projects, the group kicked it off with a review of the winter academic conferences. Next, they discussed the announcement that Stanford University Press was awarded funding from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation for the publishing of interactive scholarly works. On the subject of digital scholarship, Amanda mentioned the Humanities Open Book project which was recently funded by both the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) and the Mellon Foundation. Shifting the discussion to pedagogy, Mills addressed the way in which students may engage with the humanities differently through wearable computing. This podcast was produced by Digital History Fellows Jordan Bratt and Jannelle Legg.

Episode #100 — The Best and Worst of 2007 https://digitalcampus.tv/2013/11/episode-100-the-best-and-worst-of-2007/ https://digitalcampus.tv/2013/11/episode-100-the-best-and-worst-of-2007/#respond Fri, 08 Nov 2013 15:37:18 +0000 http://digitalcampus.tv/?p=1099 For our hundredth anniversary episode, the digital history fellows divided up the 2007 episodes of Digital Campus and picked their favorite bits — listen to the result if you dare, and be transported back to the days when the iPhone was brand new, when Second Life was the Next Big Thing, and when you had to have an email address with a .edu TLD in order to use Facebook. Good times.

Many thanks to digital history fellows Ben Hurwitz, Jannelle Legg, Anne McDivitt, Amanda Morgan, Amanda Regan, and Spencer Roberts for choosing the clips, and many many thanks to audiovisual guru Chris Preperato for stitching them together.

Episode 96 — The Olds and the New https://digitalcampus.tv/2013/03/episode-96-the-olds-and-the-new/ https://digitalcampus.tv/2013/03/episode-96-the-olds-and-the-new/#comments Mon, 04 Mar 2013 17:44:04 +0000 http://digitalcampus.tv/?p=1021 In this edition of Digital Campus, Tom, Dan, and Mills (Amanda was on a beach somewhere when we were recording) ventured into strange and wild paths of the Internet previously unknown to us, thereby proving that we are, indeed, old in Internet years. After years of talking about Google, Apple, Facebook, and Wikipedia, we set aside those old school web platforms to examine Pinterest and Tumblr. How might humanists, archivists, librarians, and museum professionals make good use of these sites that had (largely) been off our radar all this time? And we wondered whether the fact that traffic on Pinterest now rivals that on Twitter and the growing evidence that young people are moving away from Facebook to services like Tumblr might mean that those of us in the digital humanities ought to be taking a much closer look at how to best utilize these platforms. We also took a look at the 2012 Digital Humanities Award winners and offered up a few favorites from among the many worthy winners and runners up for those awards.
