  1. "Hypertext Poetry and Fiction": Beobachtungen zu einem Online-Seminar der New School

    Kreatives Schreiben als Seminarveranstaltung im Rahmen eines „Master of Fine Arts“-Studiengangs folgt an amerikanischen Präsenzuniversitäten einer langen Tradition. Die New Yorker Online-Universität New School bietet seit 1994 virtuelle kreative Schreibseminare
    an. Inwiefern aber ist virtuelle Lehre in diesem Studienbereich von Vorteil? Wie werden Literatur und Technologie in Einklang gebracht? Kann E-Learning didaktische Konzepte kreativer Schreibseminare unterstützen? Welche Lernumgebungen und Werkzeuge sind erforderlich, um die Lernziele der Studierenden zu realisieren? Vor dem Hintergrund dieser Fragen wird das Seminar „Hypertext Poetry and Fiction“ – ein besonderer Bereich des rechnergestützten kreativen Schreibens – vorgestellt und diskutiert.

  2. Creativity Support for Computational Literature

    The creativity support community has a long history of providing valuable tools to artists and designers. Similarly, creative digital media practice has proven a valuable pedagogical strategy for teaching core computational ideas. Neither strain of research has focused on the domain of literary art however, instead targeting visual, and aural media almost exclusively. To address this situation, this thesis presents a software toolkit created specifically to support creativity in computational literature. Two primary hypotheses direct the bulk of the research presented: first, that it is possible to implement effective creativity support tools for literary art given current resource constraints; and second, that such tools, in addition to facilitating new forms of literary creativity, provide unique opportunities for computer science education.

  3. RAW (Reading and Writing) New Media

    RAW New Media builds on the first decade of work in new media research within English studies, following (and also breaking from) the longer history of hypertext theory. The book defines new media only in as much as the individual chapters do so, setting the field as materially rich, ever-changing and remediating itself, and kairotic. What is “new” has no fixed boundaries. Because new media is constantly changing, it must be constantly historicized, theorized, and situated within cultural and social (as well as time-based and spatial) contexts.

  4. Reading, Writing, and Teaching Creative Hypertext: A Genre-Based Pedagogy

    The present essay contributes a genre-based pedagogy, until now only hinted at by hypertext theorists and not imported into the domain of hypertext by genre theorists. While I focus on creative hypertexts—autobiographies and popular genres like soap operas and road trip stories—a genre-based pedagogy can also be used to guide students through the production of informational, academic, community or club Web sites, personal home pages, and whatever blurred or evolving genres students are inspired by and see fit to explore.

    I advance a genre-based pedagogy for teaching the reading and writing of creative hypertext to enable teachers of hypertext to start from what they know and to provide them and their students with concrete terms and models. Such a pedagogy, especially if informed by recent scholarship on genre's flexible and rhetorical nature, requires students to make various choices not only about form but about compositional concerns: tone, diction, prose style, character development, plot, setting, visual design, and hypertext navigation strategies.

  5. Digital Scholarly Communication

    HASTAC´s conference on Digital Scholarly Communication showed why and how we cannot change the academic message without transforming the medium. And vice versa. The gathering experimented with an array of new forms and formats designed not just to discuss those three terms--digital, scholarly, communication--but to show how they work together to change one another and, indeed, to contribute to the transformation of higher education more generally. Bringing together voices from many sectors of the academy in a variety of new formats, this conference presages powerful new possibilities for interdisciplinary, interactive, and multimedia research and communication both in the academy and for the general public.

  6. Student Research Using the ELMCIP Knowledge Base

    This talk describes ways in which we have used the Knowledge Base in teaching and independent student research at the University of Bergen, and proposes ways of integrating the Knowledge Base into new courses. We have found that the Knowledge Base works well as a reference resource for first-year students, whereas more experienced students can learn about multiple aspects of digital-humanities research (bibliographic, literary, methodological, institutional) by adding entries to the Knowledge Base, which provides the opportunity to write in a networked, digital enviornment in which their contributions will help to build a field by making the activities that constiute it visible.

    Advice for integrating the Knowledge Base into a course:

    1. Design the syllabus in the Knowledge Base before the course begins.

    2. Set students up with accounts at the start of the semester.
