The DH2017 Program Committee invites proposals for workshops and tutorials. Proposals may be submitted here: https://www.conftool.pro/dh2017/. The submission deadline is February 17, 2017 at 11:59 GMT.
Excerpt from the DH2017 CFP https://dh2017.adho.org/cfp/:
*Pre-Conference Workshops and Tutorials*
Participants in pre-conference workshops and tutorials will be expected to register for the full conference as well as pay a small additional fee. Tutorials are normally intensive introductions to specific techniques, software packages or theoretical approaches with a small number of participants. Workshop proposals may take many forms, including proposals with a full slate of speakers and presentations, as well as proposals to issue an independent call for papers from which submissions will be chosen.
Proposals should provide the following information:
-
Title and brief description of the content or topic and its relevance to the digital humanities community (not more than 1500 words); -
Full contact information for all tutorial instructors or workshop leaders, including a one-paragraph statement summarizing their research interests and areas of expertise; -
Description of target audience and expected number of participants (based, if possible, on past experience); and -
Special requirements for technical support.
Additionally, tutorial proposals should include:
-
A brief outline showing that the core content can be covered in a half-day (approximately 3 hours, plus breaks). In exceptional cases, full-day tutorials may be supported.
And workshop proposals must include:
-
Intended length and format of the workshop (minimum half-day; maximum one-and-a-half days); -
Proposed budget (as workshops are expected to be self-financing); and -
If the workshop is to have its own call for participation, a deadline and date for notification of acceptances, and a list of individuals who have agreed to be part of the workshop’s Program Committee.
