“…Poroi 13,1 (May 2017) On a rather shallow level, it can be said that the disciplines will indisputably benefit from a shared effort in defining themselves within academia as "not being just a matter of words." They would also benefit from the claim of having a truly epistemic nature, as has been consistently argued for rhetoric, as well as for translation and cross-cultural studies (Ingraham, 2015;Gutiérrez, 2012). More deeply, it seems that any growth of either discipline in some specific direction may be significantly hindered by a secular lack of convergence between them.…”

Technical communication instructors, especially those with expertise in visual rhetoric, information design, or multimedia writing are well-suited to teach an introductory Digital Humanities (DH) course. Offering a DH course provides an opportunity to reach extrafield audiences and work with students from a variety of humanities disciplines who may not have the option of taking such a course in their home department. The article advocates for a DH course that offers a methods-driven pedagogy that engages students with active learning by requiring them to research, dissect, and report on existing DH projects, as well as work with existing datasets and methods from prior student research projects or existing DH tools. The sample student project reviewed here uses the data visualization software ImagePlot, and discussion includes how the student used the tool to examine changes in brightness, hue, and color saturation, as well as calculate the total number of distinct shapes from 397 comic book covers. Ultimately, the students are tasked with developing a research question and moving to an articulated methods-driven approach for exploring the question. The student project along with the tools and sample datasets available with them are treated as a module that may be included in an introductory DH course syllabus or training session.
