Digital scholarship tools and techniques are actively transforming research. It is crucial to introduce both students and instructors to user-friendly tools that enhance their students' research capabilities. The Digital Scholarship Pedagogy Institute aims to equip instructors with strategies for integrating digital tools into their classes. Incorporating these tools can take the form of instructional resources, required assignments, or final projects that visualize students' research outcomes.
During this two-day workshop, instructors will learn how to incorporate digital scholarship into their undergraduate and graduate courses. We will explore a range of tools designed to organize, advance, and visualize their research. Topics covered include AI tools, digitization methods, optical character recognition, data visualization, and integrating digital tools into syllabi.
