Powering Digital Humanities Teaching and Learning with Static Web Approaches

Check out the Learn-Static website to view our project outputs!

Welcome to the Learn-Static organization, a home for Digital Humanities-focused static web teaching modules and project templates. The inter-institutional team behind the Learn-Static initiative was funded by a National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) Digital Humanities Advancement Grant in 2021 to create the following initial tools:

  • 5 Foundational Learning Modules covering basic introductory concepts in static web development:

    • GitHub
    • HTML/CSS
    • Markdown
    • Data
    • Computational Methods
  • 4 DH classroom static web project templates and accompanying documentation:

    • Digital Collections
    • Digital Oral Histories
    • Text Analysis
    • Digital Project Recovery

Librarians and Humanities faculty at the University of Idaho and University of Oregon developed, piloted, and evaluated these educational tools over the 2021-2022 school year. Learn-Static tools and the methodology behind them stem from the digital collections platform CollectionBuilder and the Lib-Static community.
