Visualizing History: An Approach to Using Data in the Social Sciences and Humanities Classroom

Are you interested in integrating data analysis and visualization techniques into your classroom, but are not sure where to start?  In this session, Emily Merchant (History) will present on her QSS 30.05/HIST 90 course “US History through Census data” and the ways that she and James Adams, Data and Visualization Librarian, supported students in deriving meaning from historical census data through the use of the programming language R.  Faculty from across the disciplines are encouraged to attend and consider possible applications in their own classroom.

Lunch will be provided, registration is required: http://libcal.dartmouth.edu/event/3052358
