Session Title
Digital Humanities in Georgia: Implications for STEM Teaching
Session Format
Conference Session (20 minutes)
Location
Room 211
Abstract for the conference program
In early December 2016, the calling of a state-wide summit on Digital Humanities indicated that the discipline was rapidly coming into its own both nationally and regionally. This may mean that in the future, much of the training for STEM education in areas like mapping, visualizing data, 3D printing, augmented reality and human-computer interaction more generally will emerge from the humanities. The rise of Digital Humanities suggest that we are moving beyond "STEAM" into a period when STEM teaching will become truly interdisciplinary.
