Resources again

1 Leave a comment on paragraph 1 0 Hi Spring Praxis people,

2 Leave a comment on paragraph 2 0 I wanted to do another post giving you information about upcoming workshops and useful guides.

3 Leave a comment on paragraph 3 0 I highly recommend you attend tonight’s collaborative tools workshop, 6:30 – 8:30 in room C201 (concourse!) and tomorrow’s Social Media Fellows’ workshop on Tweeting, 6:30-7:30 in room 5414.

4 Leave a comment on paragraph 4 0 Because both teams are working with text — and you will need to clean your data and metadata — I also recommend attending this Thursday’s Text Analysis Working Group, Thursday, March 2nd, from 12:30pm – 2:00pm, in room 7414. Sign up here.

5 Leave a comment on paragraph 5 0 Good to remember: Office Hours are Tuesdays 2-4pm. PUG meets Wednesdays 12-2pm.

Resources again.

8 Leave a comment on paragraph 8 0 In the fall I posted about various workshops and blog posts that might help you or point you to further resources. Now might be a good time to revisit these. Now that you have clearer project objectives, you might find the DESIGN or WEB DEVELOPMENT sections more helpful. It may seem like inundation, but using these short pieces may help you learn from other people’s work.

MORE RESOURCES? YES. MORE.

Hi #DHPraxis16!

Welcome to this nifty table I made of blog posts, handouts, workshop outlines, and tutorial slide decks created by GC Digital Fellows! I broke the posts down into some umbrella categories.

  • data and databases
  • design
  • mapping
  • programming (including python)
  • project management
  • projects
  • text analysis
  • web development

If you are still coming up with your dataset — check the first category!

If you are past that and know what you want to do — check out mapping or text analysis or programming!

If you now want to put your project on the web– check out web development and if you want it to look nice– try design!

These resources are good starting places– content ranges from pretty basic to more advanced. (I recommend Getting the Most out of a Humble Technology: Word Search).

Good luck, and remember — Digital Fellow Office Hours are Tuesdays 2-4.

  • Welcome to Digital Praxis 2016-2017

    Encouraging students think about the impact advancements in digital technology have on the future of scholarship from the moment they enter the Graduate Center, the Digital Praxis Seminar is a year-long sequence of two three-credit courses that familiarize students with a variety of digital tools and methods through lectures offered by high-profile scholars and technologists, hands-on workshops, and collaborative projects. Students enrolled in the two-course sequence will complete their first year at the GC having been introduced to a broad range of ways to critically evaluate and incorporate digital technologies in their academic research and teaching. In addition, they will have explored a particular area of digital scholarship and/or pedagogy of interest to them, produced a digital project in collaboration with fellow students, and established a digital portfolio that can be used to display their work. The two connected three-credit courses will be offered during the Fall and Spring semesters as MALS classes for master’s students and Interdisciplinary Studies courses for doctoral students.

    The syllabus for the course can be found at cuny.is/dps17.
