tenure and promotion – 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, 11 May 2015 19:58:34 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=5.4.2 Episode #114 – What to do with your (digital) scholarship https://digitalcampus.tv/2015/05/episode-114-what-to-do-with-your-digital-scholarship/ https://digitalcampus.tv/2015/05/episode-114-what-to-do-with-your-digital-scholarship/#respond Mon, 11 May 2015 19:58:34 +0000 http://digitalcampus.tv/?p=1280 On this episode — #114, not #115 as Stephen mistakenly claims in the introduction — the full crew of regulars, Dan Cohen, Amanda French, Stephen Robertson and Tom Scheinfeldt discuss the MLA’s new repository, the AHA’s draft guidelines for assessing digital scholarship, and the tenth anniversary of YouTube. But first Dan talked about his visit to the White House, and Amanda described her new job as Director of Research and Informatics for the Virginia Tech Libraries. And Mills needed to know, did Dan wear an Apple watch to meet the President?

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.

What will happen to peer review? What kinds of digital work should “count,” and how? That’s the featured discussion on this episode. We also cover the launch of Firefox 3, university presses putting their books on Amazon’s Kindle device, and the release of better copyright records.
