The New Humanities

Rutgers has posted a YouTube video that illustrates its vision for the "New Humanities" and points out that while the humanities has overly focused on critique over the last few decades, we now need to more effectively utilize new technologies to promoted sustained learning and deeper understandings - esp. as our students do more to create their own learning and personal environments. (Note that the beginning seems like a PowerPoint gone bad but the latter half is worth the 7 minutes of time to watch the video.)
