Hinweis der Redaktion
- Identities: MFA in poetry, interest in e-lit Rhet/comp, emphasis in new media studies Untenured prof in English studies program, where trying to do first digital tenure portfolio Editor of Kairos, justify journal’s work to others Presentation/Performance like digital scholarship
- Intended workshop on how to read digital scholarship, but unique circumstances
- Discussion:
- One example of how digital writing (rhet/comp) studies sees digital scholarship. Do your answers fall somewhere on this line? Different for each context Individual contexts: Me: presenting born-digital work Another scholar: print-like, archival work Institutional contexts: OSU, VCU – print-biased tenure guidelines; changed them USU, ISU – peer-review is enough Disciplinary: MLA, (CELJ) Further explore disciplinary issues, often where assumptions for what counts as acceptable forms of scholarship comes from.
- Think of an example of print-based scholarship that deviates from expectations of traditional scholarship? How do we know or classify that work AS scholarship?
- How do we translate what we know from print-based work to digital work? (esp born-digital end of spectrum) EXPLAIN GRAPHIC -- Where are publication venues placed on this semantic map? -- How does their placement (of venue) relate to the kinds of work published in that venue? -- Where are individual texts placed on the map? -- Where do readers position their expertise on the map? -- What is the distance between a reader (of the text, the journal, or a T&P member) as audience and a particular text? CONTEXT!!!! (Using this or other strategies with an actual text. Norming??)
- Peer-reviewed digital scholarship for a special issue on manifestos. Pretend you are a tenure reader or a job search cmte member and this piece is part of a candidate’s portfolio. 10 minutes - enjoy
- I want to spend some time hearing how you evaluated “ultimate abstraction” Use the questions as starting points, but you might have other issues to address.
- Where were the similarities and differences in/between/across disciplines?
- Conclude by thinking of strategies (authors and readers) for understanding digital scholarship.
- What other strategies could you foresee? DO WE KNOW WHAT OUR DEPT’s CRITERIA IS??? (Changes at OSU and VCU – not just about digital media scholars, but literature)
- I hope you keep the discussion going, among yourselves and with other digital scholars and stakeholders in various disciplines. And I hope you let me know if I can be of any help. Questions?
