Hi all,
We just opened the registrations for our next THATCamp in the
Caribbean<http://caribbean2013.thatcamp.org/>.
This year we will be going to Cuba. The prestigious Casa de las Americas
has agreed to host us November 4-7. The first two days will be dedicated to
workshops, and the last two to the unconference. We hope this event will
draw an international crowd. We have an excellent local team making sure we
will have appropriate lodging and an international team now working on
funding for selected campers. For those of you worried about visas, let me
reassure you, it is perfectly doable to obtain the right permits to go to
Cuba if you act a couple of months in advance.
To register visit our registration
page<http://caribbean2013.thatcamp.org/register/>.
Registration is FREE. In fact the whole thing is free except for your
travel and lodging expenses.

Hola a todos,
Acabamos de abrir las inscripciones para nuestro proximo THATCamp en el
Caribe <http://caribbean2013.thatcamp.org/?lang=es>. ¡Este año nos vamos a
Cuba! La prestigiosa Casa de las Americas ha ofrecido acogernos del 4 al 7
de Noviembre. Los dos primeros días serán dedicados a talleres, y los
últimos dos a la desconferencia en si. Tenemos un equipo local organizando
la estadía y otro internacional ocupándose de conseguir fondos para ayudar
a participantes de bajo recursos.
Para registrarse visiten nuestra página de
inscripción<http://caribbean2013.thatcamp.org/register/?lang=es>.
La inscripción es GRATIS. De hecho, la desconferencia y los talleres son
todos gratis. El unico costo es el viaje y la estadía.
Si tienen alguna pregunta sobre las desconferencias visiten nuestro sitio o
envíenme un email.
Espero verles en La Habana!
Alex.
Hi all,
It's time to put together the editorial board for the Around DH
project<http://www.globaloutlookdh.org/working-groups/491-2/>.
Ryan Cordell's class has done a great job of getting us started. We are
getting ready to move to next stage of development which involves refining
the design and translating the work into as many languages as we have
volunteers for.
Here's how you can help:
a) Nominate someone or volunteer to be part of the Editorial Board that
makes final decisions on the sites for inclusion. We need at least 1
representative from each of the areas defined in our
spreadsheet<http://www.globaloutlookdh.org/working-groups/491-2/>.
We already have somebody for Western Europe, Amelia Sanz, who volunteered a
long time ago.
Contact me directly if you want to be part of the jury/board.
b) Can your team help with translation of the whole site once it's done? We
would like for the actual project to travel around the world before we
launch to the general public. What better way than to have it duplicated in
different languages. It's written in Scalar (so far) so we will ask for
different teams to take over hosting for individual language versions. To
talk about the details contact me directly.
c) Can your team help with design? We just need one team for this. Again
contact me directly.
My email is colibri.alex(a)gmail.com

Dear friends,
I have published a blog post concerning the results of the survey "Who are
you, Digital Humanists?". In French.
I would like to submit this paper in at least a journal in english and
French, but in a spanish-speaking journal, I think it would be important,
too. http://blog.homo-numericus.net/article11138.html
For this reason, I am looking for people willing to translate it in other
languages!
Best regards,
Marin

The editors of The CEA Critic recently accepted our proposal for a special issue on Digital Humanities Pedagogy (Spring 2014). We imagined having this special issue move beyond digital humanities theory to practical application with articles addressing pedagogical approaches to introducing undergraduates to one or more aspects of digital humanities:
* transcribing, metadata writing, annotating, and basic TEI coding in conjunction with a startup or established digitization project
* datamining: creating narratives of digital texts based on searched terms or defining search terms for future researchers
* using digital editions to teach students paratextual influence
* analyzing and evaluating the vitality of and scholarly rigor within digital editions with ancillary editorial apparatuses versus open-source digital libraries (e.g. Project Gutenburg, Internet Archive, Google Books, Gale databases)
* using TEI tags to enhance research skills and develop annotation awareness as both creator and user
* writing hyperlinked annotations as a tool to increase scholarship and boost students’ researching skills
* collaborating across disciplines to engage the non-humanities major in digital humanities projects
Proposals for the 3,000-5,000-word articles should not exceed 500 words. Please submit proposals to digitalhumanities(a)ttu.edu<mailto:digitalhumanities@ttu.edu> by 15 June 2013.
All queries should also be sent to the aforementioned email address. Please consult The CEA Critic site for formatting guidelines: http://www.cea-web.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=15&Item…
