During the month of February, I created a basic tutorial for getting started with the static exhibit site templates that make up CollectionBuilder for Vivero as my professional development activity for the month. This project was a great opportunity to delve further into CollectionBuilder and also think about how to present this tool to a novice audience. Throughout the process, I got to learn more about digital pedagogy by consulting relevant scholarship and evaluating the level of complexity that could be presented in a short training like this project. In many ways, this required me to think more creatively about what learning outcomes I should emphasize and what a student might be learning from an introductory training.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This meant that the training teaches students more about how to work with metadata and the files that make up the core of a CollectionBuilder site, rather than things like HTML and CSS, which make up the structure of the site. While I wish a training could delve in deeper, this emphasis reflects what skills are most important for building a foundation for learning more about static site builders and minimal computing in a short timeline.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
