At this point, you’ve seen several examples of digital scholarship projects and had an opportunity to interact \u00a0with them, as well as understand different aspects of user experience. Choose a digital scholarship project and write a review\/evaluation of it. Use the Criteria for Digital Scholarship Project\u00a0Evaluation<\/a> to guide your post. You are strongly encouraged to look at the projects created by Gettysburg College students and faculty; peer review and critique is important, those of us who have worked on these projects often fail to see their faults and errors, and it helps to have new voices give their input. However, if doing so makes you uncomfortable, \u00a0then choose a project not affiliated with Gettysburg.<\/p>\n Scalar<\/a> is a free, open source authoring and publishing platform that\u2019s designed to make it easy for authors to write long-form, born-digital scholarship online. Today\u2019s workshop and lab will introduce Scalar, examine various uses for the platform, help us understand the six basic Scalar elements (page, object\/media, path, tag, annotation, comment),\u00a0and get us started on installing and creating a Scalar site. As we learn, we will reference many Scalar projects, including those made by the 2016 Digital Scholarship Summer Fellows<\/a>.<\/p>\n We will complete the Scalar lab exercise started in the morning. By the end of this lab, participants will have created a Scalar test book, added objects\/media, made tags, made pages, made a path, and annotated media. This is the perfect time to break it, fix it, tinker, explore!<\/p>\n Wikipedia is perhaps the most referenced website on the Internet; its open nature and philosophy that anyone can edit it makes it a powerful tool for gathering and disseminating knowledge. How awesome! We’ll begin today’s lab by discussing both the promise and peril of this project (be sure to do the reading). Then, we’ll devote time to identifying possible editing sites. Finally, we will contribute to Wikipedia by editing pages.<\/p>\n Digital scholarship is a multimedia-focused way to \u00a0present research, and \u00a0audio is a way to provide engaging content to your audience. Today, Carrie Szarko from Educational Technology will discuss the use of \u00a0audio in digital scholarship, provide us with open access materials we can use, as well as get us introduced to\u00a0editing audio with Audacity.<\/p>\n Today, spend no more than 5 minutes speaking about an aspect of Scalar that you learned about this week. If it helps, pick out an existing Scalar site and display it to us, and show us how it works.<\/p>\n Blog Post: Due Monday, June 19 At this point, you’ve seen several examples of digital scholarship projects and had an opportunity to interact \u00a0with them, as well as understand different aspects of user experience.
