This review website is a project of Intro to Digital Humanities DMH280, a course offered by West Chester University of Chester County Pennsylvania.
This project involved reviewing a project that worked with the digital humanities. By working with the website creation interface WordPress, this project focused on analyzing another digital humanities project’s goals, methods, and values in a written review site.
The values of digital humanities are outlined in the third chapter of a written work by Lisa Spiro and include openness, collaboration, collegiality and connectedness, diversity, and experimentation.
As it stands, this project was meant to be completed collaboratively in a team. By design, this project has not addressed the essential value of collaboration set by this assignment rubric and digital humanities as a whole. Instead, this one-person group’s focus shifted to experimentation. In the wake of the 2020 pandemic, this project aims to experiment with individual time and course work management. Project one of the semester was an experiment in online collaboration. With project one as a neutral for having collaborative elements, this project tests the individualized approach to the same assignment.
