dc.description | In this course, we will think through the histories of digital technology, situating them within the cultural and social contexts in which they emerge. Students will consider approaches to the digital that include critical analysis of platforms, technoculture, big data, networks, infrastructure, archives, and design thinking. We will recognize how to strengthen social media analysis by understanding platforms and infrastructure. We will pair big data analysis with ethical archival practices that consider the people and artifacts at the center of our work. In addition to studying content and form related to digital culture, students will be introduced to computational tools that enhance textual, geospatial, and network analysis. This is not a methods course, nor is there an expectation that students master new tools in a short window; instead, this course introduces the histories, theories, and controversies at the center of the interdisciplinary work of digital studies. With this introduction, students determine which digital tools and methods are most appropriate for their research. Throughout the term, we will learn from each other's differing approaches to digital inquiry, prompting new questions and new modes of engagement. | en_US |
