Course Requirements

Final course grades will be calculated as follows: 

10%- Hypothes.is Annotations
40%- Workbook Assignments
20%- Portfolio
30%- Practicum

Hypothes.is Annotations

During each of the first 8 modules of the course, students will collaboratively annotate assigned readings and websites. Since this assignment is designed to prepare you for in-class discussions, you must post your annotations before Thursday's class and demonstrate that you have critically engaged with the assigned texts (1 point per module- no partial credit).  

Workbook Assignments

During each of the first 8 modules of the course, students will complete a workbook assignment (to see the full prompt scroll down or go to the corresponding module page). To receive full credit ( 5 points apiece) you must: 1) complete the entire assignment, 2) post your assignment before Tuesday's class, and 3) present your assignment to the class. Because workbook assignments are skill building exercises, you will be graded for your effort and receive feedback to promote continued learning.

Portfolio

During Module 9, you will have the opportunity to build on the skills that you have developed and the feedback that you have received to design your own Scalar book that contains a personal bio and two edited workbook assignments. Here you will be graded for the final quality of your work.  

Practicum

In the final module, you will work in groups to contribute to the continuing development of the digital humanities project Changing Landscapes: From 'The ASU Story' to Modern A-State.​ Scroll down or go to Module 11 to see how this assignment is staged and graded.
