I found this intersting as even though they might try to get rid of the hierchical way we have things set up but it still finds its way to creep up into research teams no mater what. I wonder if there's a way to end the hierarchal manner of these teams and allow for more collaborative teams that don't have a heirchy. allowing for a better way of developing ideas and to stop pitting people amongst each other to move up. But it is cool that this article describes this and how it works to thunk through this problem.

this is an important point as many details sometimes get overlooked but can make a world of difference to the one accessing the digital medium. Something that makes sense in the devolpment might not when actually used. Plus there is extra nuances you have to handle with delicacy due to the nature of history especially when it comes to minority groups/movements and underrepresented groups. This project really makes you think more about how much effort and detail went into it and how it was purposely made that way even though it might be criticized on first glance.

Its really intersting seeing how they have their ideas on topics that you'd think is shut and close, challenged and how to rethink this topic. I remember in class discussing how we found objects to be ineffective but with this, It makes me think of it differently. There is more meaning and makes you quesition some aspects. Although I still think the polar bear tag might need more explanation

This is a very important lesson to learn from and to improve upon as we learn to better use the internet and digital mediums ethically. The way we have recorded and digitized media in regards to the history of slavery was not handled properly and ethically.

I never though about this aspect of recording information. It really makes you think how we categorize people especially enslaved people in digital mediums. From the intrusive nature of having every aspect written and recorded to the way we now record that information using outdated and insensitive terms to describe people.

I feel like this word is really important to explain the difference of using the information and (like it said) the commodification of information. Digital history makes it easier to access but also makes a lot of things more like a commodity or something you can buy or get just cause you can. You don't treat it like history per say but more so as data or just something you can read for fun.

Its truly sad to see such a shrinkage in academic learning of history as history is just as important as STEM. In fact I might wager it is more important as we want to avoid the mistakes of the past to be a better tomorrow.

I feel like this plays a major role on why people like using the internet, to bypass copyrights to look at knowledge that otherwise would be too expensive to look at or take to long to get.

Seems like many are adapting the use of technology for their research and finding ways to making it work.

I feel like this is such a huge plus for digital history. Many couldn't access documents due to the borders of countries but now we have access to everything on the internet. Able to access at home which is more accessible for everyone especially those who cant travel or have the resources to travel.

This is the point that as I grew up I thought more and more of. The ethics of an online era for publishing and consuming any type of academic work whether it be historical, news or science. Since anyone can post anything it gets harder to find credible sources but also easy to just assume someone is credible (after all it takes work to determine if the person is credible) and go with whatever they are saying. which leads to some people taking advantage of that and spreading misinformation on purpose or even the ethical use of digital sources.

Fun website also a throw back haha

this is a really important aspect to me cause reading out of a book is not always the best way to learn. digitalization allows for new and creative ways to engage all students and teach them in ways that benefit them. It also allows for new avenues and opportunities such as online learning, working collaboratively, and even this type of annotation.

This is an important aspect of digital history since it helps to build, collect, and store the information on important documents that are held in mediums such as libraries so they may be there forever and not lost to time. also means there's credible sources from books that are analyzed and such by a board of professionals.

I never really thought of that aspect too much but not all digital history is ethical to consume nor use. Thats a gray middle that we don't think of too often. I agree that the Global North and South are disconnected in this sense too.

So many options and some I have not heard of

So many more options to use the digital media for academic puporses which is really incredible and lends for more creative and thoughtful research or use of it.

Pretty much half the world...

Wow thats a lot, I cant even put that number to an image in my head. Like I heard somewhere that 1 million Is like week but 1 billion is 35 years worth of seconds. I cant imagine 2.5 quintillion.

I really resonated to this quote as it is very true in the world that if you just focus on finishing a subject or skill or anything, you lose sight of the purpose of it or mastering or achieving it.\

Its wild to think that we have a lot of academic research on this topic as many dismiss the change in grading to be pampering to students.
