Humanities and technology: Can we talk?

Posted on September 26, 2014 by Betsy Devine

I would love to be part of a session where people trade stories of success and failure at collaboration. I’m thinking especially of collaboration between technology-skilled people and those focused on humanities teaching or research. I have been on both sides of this divide, sometime trying to get help from people with much more tech-savvy, but at other times trying to help people with tech who understand less. If you’ve been in either situation, what have you learned that others could learn from?

Engineering degree, co-authored a couple of books (one a collection of science jokes), happily retired, loving being part of the Harvard Institute for Learning in Retirement. The study groups I've led there all look at various ways technology and society interact -- two most recent were history of food technology and a survey of MOOCs with other online learning options.
