SUMMARY:DH Pop In: Building Digital Timelines
DESCRIPTION:Building off of the success of the Black Digital History event this spring\, the McGillicuddy Humanities Center will be continuing their DH Pop In series throughout the year to show the potential and accessibility of the digital humanities for research and classroom use. Spearheaded by the MHC’s Humanities Specialist Karen Sieber\, each event will showcase a different tool or digital project\, and teach users how to use similar methods in their own research or creative work\, including mapping\, textual analysis and digital exhibits. \nThe next DH Pop In will be Monday\, August 3\, at 1PM. Sieber will show virtual attendees how to build quick\, easy\, free interactive timelines using the tool TimelineJS. No experience is necessary. Possibly uses include building virtual timelines to help students make sense of jam-packed survey classes\, harnessing the power of timelines to organize graduate school comps notes\, and using timelines to break down big ideas for a general audience. This tool also allows for collaborative remote work for classrooms meeting virtually. \nEmail mhc@maine.edu to get the link to register for the DH Pop In. \nSieber’s own digital humanities work has received national attention in recent years. The site Digital Loray (www.digitalloray.org) received the National Humanities Alliance’s “Humanities For All” award. The map\, timeline and digital archive on the race riots of 1919 that she built (www.visualizingtheredsummer.com) is used in classrooms around the country and has reached hundreds of thousands of users.
