As part of the class DHM 280 (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/intro.digitalwcu.org\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Intro to Digital Humanities<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">), we formed groups and worked to review a digital humanities project. The digital humanities project our group chose was the mapping project\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/mappingpoliceviolence.org\/\">Mapping Police Violence<\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">During the creation of this project our group was formed very early, and the roles we were given were assigned at a later date. With only having three members out of a possible six for our group, two members had to take two sections of the six required elements and balance the workload given to them. Below you can see our team members and which required element(s) each team member accomplished: <\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Kayla Lubach: Overview &amp; Significance \/ Methodology<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jake Marcozzi: Audience &amp; Discipline(s)<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Frankie Mendicino: Peers &amp; Context \/ Evaluation<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mapping Police Violence review was created using <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">WordPress<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, as it allowed us to be able to easily work on separate pages at once. As this is our second project using WordPress, there was less confusion and allowed our group to have a much better experience creating our website. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Our group communicated via a group chat during the development of the project, allowing all of us to have conversations without needing to worry about a email or phone call not being seen. The decision to have a group chat helped expand our communication process, and keep decisions quick and easy. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As a group our shared documents were kept on <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/drive\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Google Drive<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, this gave the group the easiest option to see who was doing what and when it was due, all while keeping our work available to our group anytime anywhere. This decision helped us so that we could always have a reference for our responsibilities and what had to be accomplished.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thank you for visiting our review of the project Mapping Police Violence. We hope the review stood out to you, and that the website can be successful enough to leave a impact on classes after ours.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Kayla Lubach \u00a0X \u00a0Jake Marcozzi \u00a0X \u00a0Frankie Mendicino<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Mapping Police Violence Review website was created as an assignment during the 2018 fall semester at West Chester University.
