#dariahTeach
This paper presented as part of the panel session 'Training Interfaces for the 2020s' in the "DARIAH Annual Event 2021: Interfaces", focuses on the interfaces developed for #dariahTeach (https://teach.dariah.eu/), the open-source, freely-available online platform for digital arts and humanities curriculum, with a particular focus on the courses that were recently released as part of the project IGNITE: Design Thinking & Making in the Arts and Sciences. These courses, developed specifically for Masters students, took a multimodal approach to course content, utilising videos, audio, timelines, slideshows, and interactive quizzes. They were utilised in both formal postgraduate educational programmes (in the Netherlands and Denmark), as well as in less formal workshops and summer schools during the lockdown. This presentation will discuss the interactive design cycle used to develop these courses, as well as the integration of what are considered more playful learning objects (videos, interactive quizzes) alongside more traditional assignments (e.g. articles and book chapters) for a virtual classroom experience. The presentation will reflect on the lessons learnt through focus groups, interviews, and surveys to utilising #dariahTeach both before and during Covid-induced virtual teaching.
