Comment on Grading! by Kim Hall

This is a very useful topic. While sometimes it is quite easy to find sample assignments, I’ve found figuring out (and making clear to students) criteria, very challenging–even down to what percentage of the final grade an assignment should be.

If you still need sessions, Adeline, I could propose a “Practicum” session in which attendees could share ideas on their use of digital humanities in the classroom and in student assignments. I’d start with my “Art of New Jersey” website, which is now 11 years old. I’d love to get newer ideas from others on how they’re using DH in the classroom and in student assignments. I want to attend Rodger’s session on Blogs, so please don’t schedule us at the same time!

I’d attend that, Rodger! Maybe someone else who’s attending has tried WordPress?

Maps and geospatial projects in the college classroom:
Have you used map assignments? Have you tried group work, collaboration, or “crowd-sourcing” with students? If so, please share your tips and tricks. I can imagine using it for complicated plots in novels or for tracking history over time…. what have you done that we can steal/mimic/emulate? I have not, but want to, and am willing to host this conversation! support.google.com/fusiontables/answer/2584135?hl=en

Blogs
I’ve seen my colleagues use blogs in their classrooms and I’ve been tempted to try myself. I would love a session in which people laid out their experiences: their best practices, their favorite blog creation software, how they’ve used them in the courses, what has was successful, what didn’t work, and whether students would continue with these after their courses.
