Lecture within the conferene Teaching History in the Digital Age – Internation Perspectives #dhiha8, June 17-18, 2019 at the German Historical Institute in Paris, co-organised with the C2DH.
In my contribution, I will talk about a three-part course model that I taught at the University of Basel. The courses are intended to impart knowledge and skills about methods and practices of Digital History and to encourage students to apply this knowledge in other areas of their studies and possibly also in their future careers.
The presentation outlines the basic structure of the courses, describes the experiences after two cycles and discusses the challenges of teaching digital skills in the curriculum.
