Digital Historical Practices is a graduate-level survey of technologies for historically-minded humanists and social scientists.

This course has three main goals: 1) to introduce you to technology relevant to your research; 2) to introduce you to technology that you can use to enrich the undergraduate learning experience; 3) to acquaint you with digital practices adaptable to tasks beyond the academy (alt.ac).

Over the course of the quarter we will learn about human and machine transcription, text indexing, content management, close reading and “distant” reading, as well as visualization, mapping, and spatial analysis.
