HISC06H3: Futures of the Past: Introduction to Digital History

In the oft- titled “Information age” how has historical practice changed? How will researchers analyze the current moment, which produces ever more, and ever-more fragile information? This third-year seminar explores the foundations of digital history by understanding the major shifts in historiography and historical research that have occurred through computing. Students taking this class will be prepared to take HISD18 and further extend their knowledge of digital methodologies.
