[Read our full call for applications here.]
The institute will be open to 22 participants (including 2 from MSU) who regularly teach undergraduates or train those who do, and would like to incorporate digital humanities in the teaching of texts. The institute is free for selected participants, and those attending will receive a stipend. (Please see the Participant Information page for more details about stipends and conditions of award for participants.)
Application to the institute should include:
- An up-to-date CV.
- A statement of interest (500-700 words) describing how the institute will further your pedagogical and professional goals, your interest in learning and teaching digital humanities skills, and any relevant digital humanities experience.
- A description (250-500 words) of your teaching assignments and responsibilities, as well as a specific course or workshop(s) you would like to develop with a digital humanities component.
- A schedule or syllabus for a class or workshop you have taught. If the applicant has not taught before, please note this in the teaching description.
- One letter of recommendation emailed to nehtextualdata@gmail.com.
Please send all material (except recommendation) as a single PDF, with letter of recommendation under separate cover, by February 1, 2018 to nehtextualdata@gmail.com. Participants will be notified of acceptance in early March 2018.
Selection will prioritize candidates who demonstrate interests in learning and teaching DH skills, who have had little or no support for digital humanities pedagogy and training, who teach regularly and are engaged in undergraduate education, and who commit to incorporating digital humanities in a particular course, workshop, or project in the year or two following the institute.
