Current Trends in Digital Humanities

This course explores current and future media technologies used to design new content in the arts and humanities. Digital humanities are emphasized in the private and public sectors using sociological, psychological and cultural research. The emphasis is on key digital humanities concepts such as: video game design, data/information visualization, user interaction, gamification, and mobile media in terms of usability, utility and desirability. Using a game-based learning model, the coursework is interdisciplinary, integrating the sciences, technology, engineering, education, training, marketing, and healthcare as they intersect with the arts.
