Description
Librarians from the Five Colleges of Ohio collaborated to develop and present a series of traveling workshops on digital tools, primarily Omeka and Scalar, for faculty members of the colleges. The workshops have led to adoption of these tools in a variety of courses on each campus. We will discuss our approach to planning and implementation, as well as faculty responses to the workshops. We will also discuss workshop outcomes such as the classes using the platforms, research projects, and a possible new major. Pooling knowledge and collaborating with colleagues from similarly situated institutions (small liberal arts colleges) made it possible for us to provide faculty with hands-on experiences with digital tools that sparked interested in the new forms of pedagogy and scholarship.
