Let’s Build an Omeka Training Kit

By

Instructor: Sheila Brennan

    Requirements

  1. Working knowledge of Omeka.
  2. Desire to teach others how to use Omeka.

The goal of the workshop is to encourage anyone and everyone to jump in and offer Intro Omeka workshops to help train colleagues and students at their home institutions. In this new workshop, we will work together to build an open training kit for Omeka trainers. I will start by sharing my workshop outlines and will ask for others to share their experiences, so that we can build a master workshop outline with suggestions for accompanying files to make giving Intro workshops easier for all. We will make these materials available either in a Google Group or Zotero (or both) to make it easier for everyone to add, share, and build.

Please add to this public Zotero group with Omeka articles and other resources. www.zotero.org/groups/omeka

  1. I’m unfortunately missing THATCamp Prime/this awesome session to attend DHSI, but I can share the webpage linking to my slides/files/notes from teaching “Omeka for Textual Scholars” as an Society for Textual Scholarship ’12 workshop (looking at how to use Omeka for textual archives and even digital editions): digitalliterature.net/workshops/sts12.html
    Have lots of fun!

  2. Super, thanks, Amanda. I’ll be sure it is in the Zotero group and we may use to compare how different folks teach it. We’ll miss you, but have fun at DHSI!
