Which Research methods do you most want to learn? A research method that I would like to understand better is network analysis. Taking massive amounts of data from networking and analyzing it. I feel like this skill would be useful to have inside and outside of digital humanities, and is a method that I will use even outside of class. Company’s use networking data constantly to better improve there outreach methods, and as that is something that I want to get into, I would love the opportunity to better understand this research method.

What topics in digital humanities research interest you? A topic that interests me in digital humanities research is how company’s are using social media and the Internet to advertise a product or service. Using digital marketing techniques to target and capture a specific audience. Internet marketing is something that has always fascinated me and having a chance to research this in greater depth would help me for future applications.

Which digital literacy especially do you most want to master? A digital literacy I would like to master is connecting all forms and devices that we use to a single core network. Having things shared back and forth between me phone, computer, and tablet would be of great help to me, and make school and personal life a lot more productive. I have started syncing small amounts of data over the cloud and it has helped me greatly, but I would like to improve this skill to help me and others more easily share information.
