Digital tools have introduced new modes for telling research stories, enabling scholars to work outside of the more traditional structure of the essay, connecting text with timelines, maps, videos, and other visual material. This workshop provides participants a space for exploring digital writing tools for creating collaborative, non-linear, and multimodal scholarship. We will overview multiple tools and investigate their capabilities before delving into Scalar, a free authoring and publishing platform that allows users to bring together their writing and imported media. We will look at examples of Scalar projects and experiment with its functionalities through hands-on play.​
