From schulenl at eckerd.edu Thu Aug 3 10:23:29 2023 From: schulenl at eckerd.edu (Nancy Schuler) Date: Thu, 3 Aug 2023 10:23:29 -0400 Subject: [Fla-facrl] The State of Digital Humanities in Florida - Survey Invitation Message-ID: Dear colleagues, We are working on a project to assess the state of digital humanities work within academic institutions across the state of Florida and invite you and your colleagues to participate in our study. As priorities change across institutions and across the state, the level of support that researchers have within the digital humanities may have also seen a shift. This survey aims to gauge the degrees to which institutions support researchers and programs, individual researcher experiences, and researcher views on the future of digital humanities work. Digital humanities work is broad and there is no singular definition of what it includes. For the purposes of this survey, we welcome your responses if you think your work is related to the use of technology and computational methods in the study of humanities. The research team consists of members of the Florida Digital Humanities Consortium (FLDH) board. Results will be presented at a future FLDH conference and compiled into a report on the state of digital humanities work in Florida. This survey is open for a two-month period until September 30, 2023. The voluntary electronic survey should take 10-15 minutes to complete. Your responses will be anonymous, as no personally identifying information is requested. There is no compensation provided for participating in the survey. You can access the survey at the following link: State of Digital Humanities in Florida Thank you in advance for your assistance with collecting this information. We look forward to sharing our results.
