Welcome to History 9808A!
This course is designed to introduce Western Public History students to new and inter-disciplinary digital history approaches, methodologies, and tools, and to explore applications to text, image, map, and other media sources. There will be flexibility to accommodate the specific disciplines and interests of the students and a special focus will be on the application of digital history to public history practice.
