A guideline for what goes into the registry and what not for moderators is wanted.

hashmich commented 5 years ago

The goal of the DH Course Registry is to provide information to: (i) students and researchers who intend take up a study in the field of Digital Humanities, (ii) lecturers who are looking for examples of good practices in the DH field or want to promote their own DH-related teaching activities and material, and (iii) administrators who aim to attract and facilitate staff mobility and exchange.

The database content will be moderated. The selection of content will be based on requests for the registration of courses, and on the identification of relevant courses by the national moderators that will be appointed by the DH Course Registry team (based on nominations from CLARIN and DARIAH).

Criteria for acceptance of courses The DH Course Registry will be as inclusive as possible, but will also be based on some very basic restrictions in order to keep the information in the database relevant for the envisaged audience and DH-focused:

● No basic computer literacy courses (e.g., courses that teach European Computer Driving license Courses, Office applications) ● No basic information management courses (e.g., courses at libraries on how to search literature/sources)

One-off workshops or summerschools are eligible content for the course registry.
