Frontpage tab 4 - collaboration
History SPOT is not just a place to find and digest content; it is also a collaborative and interactive space (or spot) where you will be able to discuss, transform and enhance content on your own pages and to share it with others. History SPOT provides a profile section where you can share information about yourself and gather resources from across the site to one place. You can create your own blog, add files and keep in touch with other users who share similar interests. Furthermore, if you wish to remix the material available on History SPOT and add your own resources, you may do this in your profile area and share it with your colleagues. You can link together pages from any (or any part) of the History Research Handbooks and combine them with relevant podcasts from the seminars section. You may add your own research or teaching materials, add links, and discuss or explain your approaches all in one place. You may collaborate with other users of History SPOT to improve the resources available and create new materials as you see fit. History SPOT offers much more than content alone, but provides a space for networking, interacting, and collaborating.
