The guidelines for the fifth round of the Institutes for Advanced Topics in the Digital Humanities (IATDH) program are now available! We’re looking for organizations and institutions interested in leading next year’s crop of institutes. This year's application deadline is March 6, 2012.

 With funding from the NEH program Institutes for Advanced Topics in the Digital Humanities, in the fall 2011 SUNY’s Center for Collaborative Online International Learning (COIL) will be hosting a series of workshops for teams of humanities faculty and administrators on methods and approaches to creating internationally-connected humanities courses that use digital technology to bring together students and teachers across international classrooms. Drawing from their experience in this area, the SUNY team will address not only the technical issues of bringing the classes together, but the pedagogical ones as well. How can bringing in the perspectives of internationally-based students add to the learning environment?

With funding from the NEH program Institutes for Advanced Topics in the Digital Humanities, in summer 2011 the University of Southern California will be hosting a four-week summer institute to explore the use of interactive media for scholarly analysis and authorship, illustrating the possibilities of multimodal media for humanities scholarship within the context of American Studies. The institute will be held July 18-August 12, 2011 in Los Angeles, California.
