THROUGH A WORKSHOP SERIES FOR TWENTY FACULTY MEMBERS FROM SMALL AND MID-SIZED INSTITUTIONS, MLA WILL DEMONSTRATE HOW TO 1) ALIGN LEARNING OUTCOMES IN HUMANITIES CLASSROOMS WITH CAREER-MINDED OUTCOMES, INCLUDING SKILLS DEVELOPMENT THROUGH HUMANITIES LEARNING; 2) USE CURRENTLY AVAILABLE DATA, RESOURCES, AND PARTNERSHIPS (BOTH INTERNAL AND EXTERNAL TO THEIR INSTITUTIONS) TO STRENGTHEN CAREER READINESS AND BUILD EFFECTIVE CONNECTIONS BETWEEN THE CLASSROOM AND APPLIED HUMANITIES CONTEXTS; AND 3) DEVELOP COURSE DESIGNS AND ACTION PLANS FOR IMPLEMENTATION.]

THE CURRENT AND FUTURE STATE OF HUMANITIES DATA [THE MODERN LANGUAGE ASSOCIATION (MLA) REQUESTS $30,000 TO SUPPORT A 1.5 DAY CONVENING FOCUSED ON AN ASSESSMENT OF CURRENT AND POTENTIAL FUTURE DATA PROJECTS AND PRACTICES RELATED TO THE STATE OF THE HUMANITIES IN HIGHER EDUCATION. THE CONVENING HAS TWO VERY PRAGMATIC AIMS: 1) TO STRENGTHEN OUR MUTUAL UNDERSTANDING OF WHAT DATA WE HAVE ? AND LACK ? IN EFFORTS TO ADVANCE OUR DISCIPLINES IN THE MIDST OF ONGOING BUDGET CRISES, UNDER-ENROLLMENT, AND PREVAILING NARRATIVES ABOUT THE RELATIVE VALUE OF THE HUMANITIES, AND 2) TO IDENTIFY AREAS WHERE THE HUMANITIES ARE DISADVANTAGED DUE TO DATA GAPS OR BECAUSE OF HOW EXISTING DATA STRUCTURES LEAD TO AN UNDERVALUING OF THE CONTRIBUTIONS OF HUMANITIES DISCIPLINES.]
