This is our project brainstorming page. Post your ideas for future infographics here in the following format:
Infographic Title: short description of infographic
- Field 1
- Preliminary resources/stats/contacts
- Field 2
- Field 3, etc.
Notes, additional info, etc.
Humanities in the University: Describes activities/impact of humanities on public universities. Go to spreadsheet to collect stats.
- Map of CHCI + UCHRI Humanities Centers
- Investment in Humanities Centers
- Decline in NEH Funding
- UC Case Study: Number of students who are humanities majors, number of students who take humanities classes, decline in UC funding for humanities (compare to sciences?) - Start with English Depts at UC campuses
- What do the Humanities Do? (activities of humanities centers on campuses)
This would be a single infographic with interconnected individual infographics for each field (similar to the Quantifying DH infographic).
Humanities in Your Town: Describes local (perhaps CA only) "humanities outreach" institutions and programs (library reading groups, public humanities centers, museums, etc.)
- Map of towns with community reading programs
- 53 libraries participating in 2012 CA Reads Program, over $400,000 in grants awarded (CA Reads): http://www.calhum.org/grants/california-reads-grant
- Comparative chart of different kinds of public humanities institutions (museums, clubs, etc.) from different years.
- Some kind of stat about humanities in elementary schools/humanities programs for kids?
