Reviews
The new edition of Using Digital Humanities in the Classroom extends its already positive and beneficial role, at a time when our thinking about the issues it speaks to have increasing importance. Its new and revised materials continue to build on the first edition's foundation: clear and accessible, learned and pragmatic, broad and deep - and, above all, extremely useful to all those teaching any aspect the digital humanities, new and experienced alike. -- Dr. Raymond Siemens, Distinguished Professor in the Faculty of Humanities, University of Victoria, Canada
This unique book is a goldmine for humanities academics wanting to incorporate digital content into their teaching. In accessible, non-intimidating style, the book and its companion website take you by the hand and guide you through practicalities and logistics. Using it has revolutionised my undergraduate teaching. * Simone Murray, Associate Professor in Literary Studies, Monash University, Australia *
