Session Information

THATCamp HSS 2018 will take place at the Seattle Public Library, a short walk from the History of Science Society’s Annual Conference. We encourage anyone attending the HSS meeting to consider coming to this morning event from 8:00-12:00, and we welcome anyone else as well.

Please see http://hss2018.thatcamp.org/ for more information. 

Charles H. Pence, who reported on the event at the 2017 meeting, describes it as follows: "The Humanities and Technology Camp," or THATCamp for short, is a unique variety of conference—an “unconference,” as the moniker goes—in which no agenda is set in advance and participants work together to craft sessions based on demand and interest. The focus of these meetings, found worldwide, is collaborative learning, with free-form discussion, idea sharing, and problem solving. Attendees with experience in particular technologies or techniques might lead a small working group to improve or enhance them, or form a breakout session for others interested in hearing about their work. Or the group as a whole might discover that we all have a shared interest or problem to solve and focus on it together.

The full report is available on digital.hssonline.org, a new HSS initiative to support and celebrate digital scholarship.
