Digital Humanities Syllabus

Digital humanities syllabus is a type of academic course outline/site that relates to the study of digital humanities. The DH syllabus course information sites are used by academic communities and DH practitioners. These sites play a vital role in supporting the DH scholarship and providing means for sharing key bibliographic content and academic knowledge.

Conceptually, the digital humanities is an interdisciplinary field that blends information studies with humanities discourse. The syllabus is an instructive "course road map / contract" that students ought to follow and fulfill throughout the duration of a course term. The DH syllabi can be found in institutional repositories, on dedicated course blogs, and DH academics' sites.

Increasingly, the DH syllabus content is available through open access institutional blogs and sites. Beside the instructional use, the DH syllabus course sites enable the DH community to promote and share useful educational materials and internet resources.

In higher education, the DH syllabus serves as a practical course guide for students to navigate institutional policies, course information, and learning resources. In academic community, the DH syllabus contributes to the advancement of the DH scholarship through online publishing of course outlines (open learning movement), sharing of bibliographic data, modeling of curricula, and mapping of central themes, theory and practice.
