Renaissance Studies and New Technologies (RSA 2012, 22-24 March;
Washington, D.C.)
For the past ten years, the Renaissance Society of America program has
featured a number of sessions that document innovative ways in which
computing technology is being incorporated into the scholarly activity
of our community. At the 2012 RSA meeting (Washington, D.C., 22-24 March
2012), several sessions will continue to follow this interest across
several key projects, through a number of thematic touchstones, and in
several emerging areas.
For these sessions, we seek proposals in the following general areas,
and beyond:
a) new technology and research (individual or group projects)
b) new technology and teaching (individual or group projects)
c) new technology and publication (e.g. from the vantage point of
authors, traditional and non-traditional publishers)
Proposals for papers, panels, demonstrations, and/or workshop
presentations that focus on these issues and others are welcome.
** Through the support of Iter, we are pleased to be able to offer
travel subventions on a competitive basis to graduate students who
present on these panels. Those wishing to be considered for a subvention
should indicate this in their abstract submission. **
