The Five Colleges of Ohio Digital Collaborations Group invites you to a faculty workshop on Scalar, a robust tool for developing pedagogical digital projects. The workshop will be held in R.W. Corns Building on Sat., Oct. 27 from 10:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m.
Scalar (bit.ly/2OrYtUF) is an authoring and publishing platform for creating digital projects that juxtapose text with visually rich multimedia content (images, video, etc.) in both linear and nonlinear forms.
This workshop will provide a hands-on introduction to the platform. We will cover the features that make Scalar unique among publishing platforms and discuss its strengths and weaknesses. Two hands-on sessions will give attendees time to get familiar with Scalar’s interface and build projects of their own.
During lunch, Dr. Annemarie Sammartino, Associate Professor of History at Oberlin College, will share her experiences and reflections on using Scalar. Lunch, mileage reimbursement, and a $100 stipend will be provided.
