Gale Digital Scholar Lab Teaching

Gale Digital Scholar Lab is the ideal environment for educators to help students develop a deeper understanding of digital humanities methods. With a clear interface and accessible Learning Center, Gale Digital Scholar Lab allows students to master transferable digital literacy skills in an enjoyable way.

Gale Digital Scholar Lab also removes many of the barriers educators can face when delivering digital humanities courses:

Suitable for students with no coding skills
Simultaneously supports students with very different technical skill levels
Immediate access to source material within the same environment
No set-up or installation required
Group workspaces enable easy oversight and review of student work by educators.
