21st C Literacies: Digital Knowledge and Digital Humanities – a course outline

Here is a description of the doctoral course I’m offering this Spring, sponsored by the PhD Lab in Digital Knowledge and coordinated with some of the Lab’s offerings and enhancements in Spring 2013.   I am limiting enrollment to 15 Duke students, reserving places for 5 students from other universities in the area.   It combines “yack” and “hack” and requires that students, from the first day of class, have an online presence and create their own online portfolio (for some, at an advanced level, for others using simple out-of-the-box tools such as Google Sites).
