Introduction

Project 2

In West Chester University’s Introduction to Digital Humanities (DHM 280) Fall 2025 course taught by Dr. Randall Cream, the main goal is to understand how the study of Digital Humanities works through a series of different assignments . Through analyzing a project’s work, method, and outcomes, this assignment will evaluate an online digital project and how well it fits into the field of DH and follows best DH practices.

This project covers Petitioning For Freedom: Habeas Corpus in the American West, 1812-1924 to reach the goal of better understanding the best practices in Digital Humanities.

All content of this project was created by Rhylee Kedersha, a sophomore at West Chester University majoring in Media and Culture and minoring in Theatre Arts.
