As a companion to their book Using Digital Humanities in the Classroom: A Practical Introduction for Teachers, Lecturers, and Students, authors Shawna Ross and Claire Battershill have created a comprehensive Scalar guide of ways to implement digital humanities to promote engagement in the classroom.

Ross and Battershill provide a foundation for educators to understand the concept of digital humanities (using technology to augment the research and scholarship of the study of humanities) and its benefits.
