This graph I created was a process of my learning through this class and how I have evolved as a student. I am going to explain how I have reached an 100% confidence in the fact that I can explore digital culture and literature. Exploring literature and digital culture can be a fascinating and rewarding experience that allows individuals to gain new insights and perspectives on the world around them. By reading, participating in online communities and forums, and attending events and conferences, individuals can gain a deeper understanding of the ways in which literature and digital culture are intertwined, and can also contribute their own ideas and perspectives to the conversation. One way to explore literature and digital culture is to read works of literature that engage with digital themes and ideas. This can include novels, short stories, and poems that explore the impact of technology on society, the ways in which digital technologies are changing the way we interact and communicate with each other, and the ways in which the internet and other digital technologies are shaping our cultural and artistic landscapes. By reading these works, individuals can gain a deeper understanding of the ways in which digital technologies are affecting our lives and the world around us. I feel I have developed a deep understand of how digital technologies affect our lives, I have read many literary works, and have accomplished an understand of what it means to be a digital scholar.

Commitment
Truly Committed
Digital citizenship and community are two important concepts that are closely related and can have a significant impact on individuals and society as a whole. Digital citizenship refers to the responsible use of technology and the internet, while a digital community is a group of people who interact and engage with each other online. As more and more of our daily lives are conducted online, it is crucial that we are committed to being good digital citizens. This means adhering to a set of values and principles that promote the responsible use of technology and the internet, such as being respectful, honest, and fair. It also means being aware of the potential risks and consequences of our online actions, and taking steps to protect ourselves and others from harm. Being a good digital citizen also involves participating in and contributing to online communities in a positive way. This can include engaging in thoughtful discussions, sharing knowledge and expertise, and supporting others in the community. By being an active and engaged member of a digital community, we can help to create a positive and inclusive online environment that is conducive to learning and personal growth.
The way I want to accomplish these goals is laid out in. a simple format. First I would like to take the class of English 470. I have been recommended this class and I believe it will only further my ability to be a good digital citizen and only create a stronger online community for myself. I think the benefits of taking a class like that will be very clear when it comes to being a better citizen and community member online. The way I will also continue to be a good digital citizen is through school. School is extremely focused on online work and a community online. I believe now for many of my classes especially classes that are discussion based I can do a much better job of creating a community where everyone is heard and everyone feels comfortable. I also believe I can be a good digital citizen by using the tools I have learned in this class. Id I am able to continue to do the right type of research, including using metadata, data analysis, checking other sources, and adding good information online, just by doing that I am being a better Digital citizen and making the online community stronger.
Key DH Concept
Accesibility
Online accessibility refers to the ability of individuals with disabilities to access and use the internet and other digital technologies. Ensuring online accessibility is important for several reasons. First and foremost, it is a matter of basic fairness and equality. As stated by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), an international community that develops web standards, “Web accessibility means that people with disabilities can use the Web. More specifically, Web accessibility means that people with disabilities can perceive, understand, navigate, and interact with the Web, and that they can contribute to the Web. Web accessibility also benefits others, including older people with changing abilities due to aging.” By ensuring that websites and other online resources are accessible, we can help to ensure that individuals with disabilities have the same opportunities to participate in and benefit from the digital world as everyone else.” This is definitely a site to further your research on and I am comfortable to say is trusted.
First and foremost, it is a matter of basic fairness and equality. Just as physical buildings and spaces should be designed to be accessible to individuals with disabilities, so too should the digital world. By ensuring that websites and other online resources are accessible, we can help to ensure that individuals with disabilities have the same opportunities to participate in and benefit from the digital world as everyone else. In addition to fairness and equality, online accessibility also has practical benefits. By making websites and other online resources accessible, we can help to ensure that they are usable by the greatest possible number of people. This can help to increase the potential audience for a website or online resource, and can also make it easier for individuals with disabilities to access information and services that they need. Ensuring online accessibility also has economic benefits. As more and more of our daily lives are conducted online, ensuring that digital technologies are accessible can help to open up new opportunities for individuals with disabilities, and can help to foster greater participation in the digital economy. Overall, online accessibility is an important issue that should be given careful consideration. By ensuring that websites and other online resources are accessible, we can help to create a more inclusive and equitable digital world that benefits everyone.
Proposal
Research Question
The research question I want to dig into is what direction is literature evolving towards through the lens of these books both The Sport of Gods and Braiding Sweetgrass?
With the addition of connections from these books to how these changes in novels and literature could tell us something about the direction books are beginning to take as well as our society is going in the future.
Focusing on current societal feelings and the way they were previously written and felt when the novels were written.
How it Will be Possible
I hope to achieve how the digital world evolved with a few steps:
- a brain map of my brain with the ideas I have learned then including questions of how has the world evolved through these two books. As well including other parts of history with other novels, history books, maps, as well as sport reports.
- The significance of this project is explaining to the world how far digital literacy has come as well over this class period and how far I have come.
- The contribution will be for incoming students. They will be able to understand key ideas I have learned in this process and then for how far the world has come it will show progress but as well that the world is not done improving on being more digitally competent.
- The context of this research is people interested in the idea of how the world has developed and where they have developed specifically. As well people interested in where progress can be made.
- It is for people who want to understand where digital competency can be lacking. As well people in the future class on key ideas I have developed in such a quick period of time and how they can take key ideas to help them improve.
- As well I would like to add a map, this map will be a map of America and how through the time how states have evolved in their own writing and where parts of society have evolved or are still behind. An example would be where racism is still felt in society in certain state or where states have evolved from society.
Digital Tools
Digital tools I will need are:
- an image of a brain
- a story map design
- website on how to draw online
- the pdf of both books that I have desired
- the ability to find my keywords I have used
- maps online and history books online.
The DH processes I will need
The DH processes I will need to use to be comfortable answering my desired questions will be:
- annotations
- database building
- story mapping
- topic modeling
- analyzing different types of data.
The reason I chose these digital tools is because those are the areas I am most lacking in. There are definitely more ideas that I am blanking on right now but these are the ones I feel I am most lacking. As well I feel these tools will be the most helpful in beginning this process without these tools I would not be able to start. For the DH processes I wanted to have annotations of the maps, books, sports reports, and other novels because this will help me find the key parts of where I can feel the history of the books or the new age of the books.
Experts needed
- I will need an artist
- a data analyst
- a good annotator.
My Steps
- First I will data analyze and figure out the answer to my question.
- Second I will go through what I have learned through this process.
- Next I will apply the answer of the question into a long descriptive answer.
- Fourth I will draw the brain map and create strong visuals for both parts of the project. Lastly I will storymap my process in this class.
- 5th I will create a map of the Staes of America with an evolution from 1850 to today with slides of every 25 years showing the direction states have taken in their evolution of writing and society.
I am qualified for this project because I am a digitally competent student who has learned about so much knowledge and I am ready to take a step up from the work I have been doing and want to make an impact on society.

Questions
My Question: When in Your life were you blissfully unaware of the great things you had and reflected on that period and wished you were more appreciative in the moment?
Questions are a critical tool for understanding the world around us. They allow us to explore new ideas, to seek answers to complex problems, and to learn from others. The ability to ask good questions is an essential skill that can help us to think more deeply, to communicate more effectively, and to learn more about the world and ourselves. Questions can also be a powerful tool for communication and collaboration. By asking questions, we can engage with others in a conversation, and we can seek to understand their perspectives and experiences. This can help us to build stronger relationships and to work together more effectively towards a common goal. Life moves extremely fast and it is very important to take the time and reflect on moments in your life you wish you could have done better.
