Just like the title says, let's share what's going on in Canada in the Digital Humanities,

This group aims to join the experiences of researchers, professors, students, writers o any person interested in poetry in any language and from all times (from medieval to modern and contemporary verse) and to learn about the different projects around these kind of texts on the web: from digital textual academic databases, repertoires, digitized materials in libraries to blogs about poetry, rom primary to secondary sources, from academic to personal projects. We'd like to share our experiences in relation to the use of digital tools and resources applied to verse (the use of TEI-XML module verse, the use of MEI for verse with music, verse onthologies, etc.), networking and crowdsourcing.

A group to discuss DH projects and initiatives in India. What kinds of DH topics are Indian scholars interested in? Other ideas for conversation: what do scholars need to produce DH scholarship in India, DH resources and centers in India, digital pedagogy, etc. Please post additional topics!

A group for people who want to talk about curricular and pedagogical issues around DH in the classroom. Like, how much theory to teach, what should the students read, and where does that theory belong in the program? How do you scaffold TEI and XSLT so that students can began doing real things as soon as possible? Who teaches XSLT? Would Python do as well as XSLT (our Computer Science department teaches Python? And as an ABET-accredited program, they don't know how to teach courses to humanities majors without challenging their accreditation. You probably have better questions than this!

An emerging group to support the digital humanities in Pennsylvania. Our goal is to foster collaboration and digitally inflected scholarship and pedagogy within and between our academic institutions. And, yeah, Ben Franklin most definitely would be a digital humanist...

For twenty years, the Roy Rosenzweig Center for History and New Media has used digital media and technology to preserve and present history online, transform scholarship across the humanities, and advance historical education and understanding. The purpose of this group is to collect thoughts by the Center's diverse staff about their "Day of DH."

@SFBay_DH is currently an informal group of individuals in the San Francisco Bay Area with a shared interest in digital humanities research, tool and project development, and/or pedagogy. Our goal is to foster a vibrant digital humanities community by raising awareness of local projects, tools and people, as well as promoting events (lectures, workshops, free classes, etc.) held in the region. We aim to start holding in-person meet-ups in the fall or winter, but in the meantime, our mailing list is open for discussions and announcements. Digital Humanists have generally been affiliated with the following universities, but we welcome everyone! UC Berkeley Cal State East Bay San Jose State Santa Clara University Stanford University St. Mary's College UC Davis University of San Francisco Holding an upcoming event or workshop? Share it here! We hope to use this DayofDH space as a community space to see what individuals are up to at various institutions, share upcoming events, and follow along DayofDH posts to see what 'bay area' digital humanists are up to.
