This came in from Matt Kochis as a comment on another post.  Thought I should post it here as a potential session proposal, though I take it Matt is looking for whether someone else could lead such a session.

“Hey all. Can we have a session on how to evaluate digital humanities projects? Particularly, I’m interested not only on critiquing faculty projects but, more important, how to criticize and grade student projects. At a recent conference I attended this summer, I sat in on a round table discussion on Digital Humanities and Pedagogy. At the end of the session, I asked the panel participants what the range of grades were on their students’ work. None of them gave less than an A. This seems very problematic. I was hoping that we can discuss best practices and rubrics.

Stories were once the primary medium for sharing knowledge and culture.  Stories captivate our senses and excite our imagination.  Today’s digital technologies allow us to bring the medium back into prominence by allowing media convergence, social interaction and audience (learner) involvement in the story.
Join this session to explore technologies, strategies and resources for story creation, student interaction and games in education.
Facilitators: Charles Palmer and Andy Petroski
