There are many definitions of Digital Humanities (DH). Whether considered a set of practices or a specific discipline, the definition alters depending on the background from which you approach DH.
The framework by which we consider the use of computers in humanities scholarship, human-computer interaction, and the processes used to conduct humanities research and visualization. It is the consideration of the digital product of humanities research, and the steps that were necessarily digital to archive the research output that otherwise would not have been possible without the aid of computational methods.
It is the creation of digital spaces/objects in which people interact with humanities concepts and data in ways that are impossible in analog.
And it encompasses the notion of broad dissemination and public engagement that make for a much richer, broader, more diverse understanding of the Humanities enabled by the digital platform.
Hybrid Pedagogy : it is as much about using digital tools thoughtfully as it is about deciding when not to use digital tools, and about paying attention to the impact of digital tools on learning.
