SUMMARY:The Helen Keller Archive: A Fully Accessible Digital Archive
DESCRIPTION:American Foundation for the Blind (AFB) staff\, and members of the project team will demonstrate the features of AFB’s fully accessible digital Helen Keller Archive. This digital collection is pioneering in that it is accessible to visitors who are blind\, deaf\, hard of hearing and deafblind\, as well as sighted and hearing audiences. \nHelen Keller was a leading advocate for people with visual impairments\, and likely the most famous person with a disability in the 20th century. Moreover\, she loved NYC! Helen\, her teacher Anne Sullivan Macy\, and their assistant Polly Thomson lived in Forest Hills\, Queens from 1917 until two years after Anne’s death in 1936\, at which time Helen and Polly moved to Westport\, Connecticut. Manhattan was home to AFB’s headquarters\, first on 46th Street\, and then on 16th Street (the latter building is now the Center for Jewish History). Helen Keller and blindness advocacy are intertwined with NYC\, and Keller wrote about New York’s landmarks and commuted regularly to AFB’s offices in Manhattan. \nNavigating to digitized documents that focus on these topics\, the digital project team will lead attendees through the digital archive\, explaining the challenges of creating a fully accessible collection and its ins and outs. \nEquipment: Laptops optional

SUMMARY:A Project-Ready Approach to Teaching Visual Cultures: Replacing the Textbook with a Flexible\, Scalable Database
DESCRIPTION:In this demonstration\, attendees will learn about building a flexible\, platform neutral textbook replacement using low tech collaborative tools. The resulting data set can be published to a variety of display platforms (such as WordPress or Omeka) in addition to being available for faculty and student projects such as maps\, timelines\, and exhibits. Participants will learn about the necessary documentation and workflows to make these projects scalable. \nThe model will be the Liberal Studies Global Image Gallery\, an innovative open educational resource project that uses high-resolution\, zoomable\, public domain and licensed images and faculty-authored content to provide a free and superior alternative to costly art history texts. \nEquipment: Can bring a laptop if desired \n
