of an open-source learning environment, The Commons In A Box OpenLab (CBOX-OL),
that will enable sharing and collaboration across humanities courses, events,
projects and institutions.
Scalable for use by a single faculty member or an entire educational institution, and built upon successful prototypes and widely distributed code, this project funds the creation of an innovative, easily installed, and flexible open-source educational environment that integrates popular digital humanities tools for networked scholarly communication. Unlike closed learning management systems, the platform encourages open educational exchanges that foster ties across disciplines and classrooms. |
