Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

This interdisciplinary seminar for students of the Doctoral School of the Faculty of Historical and Cultural Studies aims at making its participants capable of reflection and action with regard to autonomous, goal-oriented, controlled, and visible digital scholarly communication.

In the first part, we will discuss research literature on the situation of the current digital transformation, especially focusing on the historical and cultural studies, whereby different sociological, psychological, and techno-historical texts will be considered.

The second part gives an overview of relevant platforms, their specific requirements and opportunities, and the degree of the engagement. This is also where the project work begins, insofar as different types of texts, images or even videos and audios are to be prepared to accompany individual doctoral projects. This will take place in small resonance groups.

In the third part, the material will be presented, discussed, optimized and then broadcast on a platform-specific basis. For this purpose, it will be possible to use the channels of the Doctoral School or those of the Professorship of Public History (especially for blogging).

Two points emerge as the central object of learning:
a) How do I use the digital platforms without succumbing to them?
b) How do I develop a scholarly communicative profile that benefits my messages as well as my own professional career in the medium to long term?

Assessment and permitted materials
