I've figured out one of the things that I should be doing differently in this class. Too much of our talk about digital history is abstracted from real world experience. We need to have more doing of digital history built into the course from the beginning.
That's an interesting observation. It might be cool to try to kind of mirror the course structure of your Urban Studies 971 class in the sense that in the 971 course you sort of walk the class through the entire process of writing a research paper, whereas in the digital history class you could do the same but substitute a website or other digital project at the end?
