One hope that I have for this course is to exit with a body of knowledge and a set of skills that will allow me to incorporate this into my classes.  Being as the walls of the classroom are becoming more and more porous and accessible through the use of technology, I want to capitalize on the phenomenon to improve student interaction and inspiration within my classes.  I also hope to develop a platform to which I can archive my course content in which to allow students to have access to it and interact with it once the course has ended.  Another hope that I have is to be able to create a digital platform in which to store and present my academic and scholarly work and to connect with a community that supports and interacts with that scholarship through an intersection of thinkers and readers.  I am excited by the notion of DH as a “communal space” that creates a new kind of “public” which will allow for a new type of social activism.  This would allow both myself, my students, and the general audience to have a point of access to social movements.
