Course Description:
What is the ethical role of research in our contemporary society? How can research implicate and impact broader publics beyond academic stakeholders through mutually beneficial partnerships? This course critically interrogates the relationship between the researcher and the researched; and explores the broader, more creative possibilities of scholarly practice beyond traditional forms of writing. Students will acquire experience and fluency with a wide variety of digital humanities platforms as they gain new understandings of best practices for developing storytelling of community value and relevance. Students will also engage both with diverse case-studies of public engaged scholarship as well as collaborate directly with current practitioners actively applying their academic research towards timely social issues. |
