Working under the leadership of Andrea Zeffiro (Assistant Professor, Department of Communication Studies and Multimedia, and Academic Director for the Sherman Centre) and Dale Askey (Associate University Librarian, and Administrative Director for the Sherman Centre), the postdoctoral fellow will in general support the outreach and curricular activities of the Sherman Centre while working specifically to assist researchers with visualizing their data and learning to understand the analytical possibilities of data visualization within their disciplinary traditions. In alignment with their own DH research agenda, the fellow will, in close collaboration with other Sherman Centre staff:
--assess faculty and graduate student interests, needs, and goals with data visualization as a technique and analytical tool
--offer training for data visualization tools and techniques
--offer consulting to faculty and graduate students to enable them to begin to include DH elements in their courses
--engage library staff in other functional areas to draw their expertise into the DH space and connect them to faculty who need support
--support the further development of DH programming at the Sherman Centre
--assist with preparing and delivering an undergraduate digital humanities introductory course, and
connect with other digital humanities initiatives in the region and beyond.
