Anne Ladyem McDivitt, Academic Technology Specialist, Department of History

Accessibility is an incredibly important topic in digital humanities, but often the scope of what that actually means is limited in academic conversations. Through the lens of utilizing digital storytelling, this talk will reframe the conversation about accessibility of digital humanities to include not only web and resource accessibility, but also equity, learning styles, and barriers to entry for DH.

As part of the CESTA Lunch Seminar Series, this talk will include lunch and take place at the Stanford Center for Spatial and Textual Analysis in Wallenberg 433A.

This event is co-sponsored with the Department of History and the Stanford Archaeology Center.
