ByteSizedPedagogy - Andrew Ferguson and Carlisle Yingst

This event was postponed from April. We hope you can join us!

 

It’s important to maintain a balanced teaching diet! This free and open-to-the-public zoom series organized by Rachel Retica, Seanna Viechweg, and Brandon Walsh is sponsored by the Scholars' Lab and the Digital Humanities Center in the UVA Library.  These sessions on digital pedagogy feature paired lightning talks introducing teaching topics, interesting approaches to the classroom, pedagogical concepts, and more. All in a bite-sized form that should still give you plenty to chew on. Our speakers for this session with information about their contributions:

  • Andrew Ferguson, University of Virginia
    • Blurb: I’ve been guiding students through learning video editing software to make and to mess up video footage.
  • Carlisle Yingst
    • Blurb: Making the digital analogue, or, analyzing a video game with paper, scissors, paste, and yarn. I'll discuss my approach to developing an undergraduate workshop on video games, focusing on the parts of the workshop that presented students with analogue, concrete, hands-on ways of thinking about some of the more abstract concepts involved in digital media. 

Interested in showing off a pedagogical bite? Please fill out this form to indicate your interest in participating in the future! We're interested in showcasing anything you have found that moves you or your students in the classroom, that has worked well or failed utterly. And we are very interested in perspectives from folks in all different kinds of positions and institutional contexts - higher ed, K-12, administrators, cultural heritage workers, and more. After the session, each speaker will submit a short one-page (max) version of their five-minute presentation that we’ll collect into a crowdsourced, citable web publication of bite-sized DH pedagogical goodness. More information on the series can be found here.
