HumaniTech: Bridging Divides, Building Collaborations

Added by the EDUCAUSE Librarian
Title:HumaniTech: Bridging Divides, Building Collaborations (ID: EDU07099)
Author(s):Barbara L. Cohen (University of California, Irvine), Stephen D. Franklin (University of California, Irvine), and Elizabeth Pace (University of California, Irvine)
Origin:Presented at EDUCAUSE Annual Conferences (10/23/2007)
Type:Presentations/Speeches
Abstract:

HumaniTech links humanities and technology by combining the perspectives and skills of faculty and staff from both humanities and campus-wide resources to work across disciplines and lines that often divide the research university: research/teaching, central/local control, faculty/staff, traditionalists/innovators. HumaniTech focuses on collaboration where IT is essential to these bridge-building efforts rather than a goal in itself.
