Digital History as Team Sport: Applying Design Thinking to the Study of the Past

Tom Scheinfeldt, Associate Professor of Digital Media and Design, Associate Professor of History, and Director of Digital Humanities in the Digital Media Center at University of Connecticut, will be visiting Monday, December 12th, 12:15-1:30 for a lunch time lecture.

Applying digital methods to the study of history requires re-thinking roles, responsibilities, and process. We’ll look at how lessons from the world of design thinking are being applied to digital scholarship, see examples of the sort of work made possible through this new way of working, and explore the questions and insights that can be gleaned by this approach.

Lunch will be provided. Please RSVP at go/DLArsvp to ensure we have ordered enough food.
