Calling all emerging scholars of the 'digital generation'...

Dr Toni Weller is seeking a contributor for a chapter on a new book on digital history to be published by Routledge. The chapter would focus on new ways of teaching and learning history in the digital age, using wikis, blogs, social networking sites, as well as digital documents, email, and so forth. The chapter should explore the conceptual challenges and opportunities of such changes in the field rather than just a list of technologies available to utilise. It may include personal experiences but needs to be accessible to a broad international audience. Dr Weller is keen that this chapter of the book should be written by an emerging scholar who is part of the 'digital generation'. Proposed titles and abstracts of up to 500 words should be emailed to Dr Toni Weller at tweller@dmu.ac.uk no later than 30 June, along with a brief CV (no more than two A4 pages). The successful contributor will need to produce a chapter of 7,000-8,000 words by August 2011
