Happy Birthday @DLF
Der @DLF hat am 1.1.1962 um 16 Uhr den Sendebetrieb aufgenommen - mit einer Nachrichtensendung. Das Manuskript: ein Stück Zeitgeschichte zum Nachlesen. Wenn auch ziemlich unleserlich, so aus heutiger Sicht... #dlf60 #deutschlandfunk

Belated RT of a blog post by Andy Evans, my co-author of a textbook ms on 20th-c. Europe, and an old friend, @HeatherRPerry Some inspiration late in the semester, when teaching juices are waning. Maybe there is something to this digital thing? 😉 @LEADR_MSU @ModEuroHistColl

One of the benefits of DH is you can create research tools like this, on the location of #JoanRingelheim's oral history archives. Perfect for @CollaboratoryGs. Thanks @SmithHelmut! #Shoah #Holocaust #twitterstorians @GSATeaching #JewishStudies
#JoanRingelheim is well known for her work on women and the #Holocaust. She was also a pioneer compiling early taped testimonies. With @EstherKatz6, she published the first such catalogue, 1986, then updated it, 1992. My attempt to locate the collections. https://t.co/W1H9xfi36l

@andreadbryant @KellyODonn We’d love to RT this for you, but we can’t. We can screenshot or cut and paste, but is there a best way for people to contact you? Through us? Also, maybe you’ll consider contributing your syllabi to the @CollaboratoryGs?

Among these contributions is the wonderful piece by @JLRodgers76 about the Einstein Papers Project, making exactly this connection between online ressources and teaching -

Our own Zeitnah Blog is a forum and a connector: to share thoughts about teaching, specific assignments, and projects, or online resources – have a look:

Both examples also follow my interests in research, something I can find @CollaboratoryGS as well - like the German Exile Press collection ( https://t.co/o4LdFdjf9W) or the Digital Library of the Friedrich-Ebert-Stiftung ( https://t.co/ShCa51nVP5) - something I work with regularly

Blogs like History of Knowledge ( https://t.co/gZUVpouX6S) or online exhibitions like “Arts in Exile” ( https://t.co/XJQ6ZoGmow) are an excellent way to reflect the role of text production and presentation in our teaching

The first content I’ve uploaded to @CollaboratoryGS in July 2020 was the website Early Holocaust Testimony ( https://t.co/ewMGC1GFcG) – one of many online sources that intersect teaching and research

Our discussions were already the best we could have wished for: creating @CollaboratoryGs was the journey with its own reward for me. So, the other two hubs Media ( https://t.co/q6UQ5VnQ5E) and Digital ( https://t.co/LXL3E8ECiF) grew accordingly – any additions? Please let us know!

Exhibitions on migration from a regional perspective, a website on local colonial traces and city tours, hikes that followed the resistance in German borderlands. But I never tried a podcast like this one @EADHistory designed - https://t.co/CSjsj7KZRT It’s about time …

I think the Teaching Hub is a fantastic opportunity especially for early career researcher and lecturer – to get input and ideas, and to share own ideas. I’ve learned a lot about project ideas I will include in my teaching, and following my own student projects in the past:

Digital and #OpenAccess #OA were significant starting points of this endeavor. But most of us already prepared teaching online for the Fall. And the Teaching Hub became, from the beginning on, the backbone of @CollaboratoryGs - https://t.co/Eo7b7SICSt Submissions welcome, always!

I maybe start with an early memory: being isolated at home but together in a virtual space in early Summer 2020. All of us have been there. But soon the @CollaboratoryGs became more – a routine, a challenge, a group of amazing people. And something I already missed the next day
