This spring I had the privilege of teaching for the first time (and remotely!) the capstone to the @UOEnglishDept Digital Humanities Minor: http://english.uoregon.edu/undergraduate/explore-our-minors/digital-humanities-minor. With their permission, I'm thrilled to share with y'all a few of the students' final projects. A thread. 1/

I was so impressed by the work the students put into their research at the end of a grueling year of remote learning under pandemic conditions, and I'm excited to share some of it with the world. RT to spread the word about these #DH makers to watch! /end
