Description
This course will provide students with an introduction to a range of digital approaches and conceptual frameworks relevant to research in the humanities, and how to both build and take part in the conversation about the issues, debates, ideas, and projects in their field. Students will develop a sense of the possibilities at the intersection of computation and the humanities and will be grounded in the global history of this work in media, information, and cultural studies, and how computation connects to close reading and analytical, critical thinking.
