Powering Digital Humanities Teaching and Learning with Static Web Approaches
https://learn-static.github.io/
Welcome to the Learn-Static organization, a home for Digital Humanities-focused static web teaching modules and project templates. The inter-institutional team behind the Learn-Static initiative was funded by a National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) Digital Humanities Advancement Grant in 2021 to create the following initial tools:
-
5 Foundational Learning Modules covering basic introductory concepts in static web development:
- GitHub
- HTML/CSS
- Markdown
- Data
- Computational Methods
-
4 DH classroom static web project templates and accompanying documentation:
- Digital Collections
- Digital Oral Histories
- Text Analysis
- Digital Project Recovery
Librarians and Humanities faculty at the University of Idaho and University of Oregon developed, piloted, and evaluated these educational tools over the 2021-2022 school year. Learn-Static tools and the methodology behind them stem from the digital collections platform CollectionBuilder and the Lib-Static community.
