    This post gives a brief overview of the various topics and articles presented in the third issue of the Journal of Digital Humanities. The focus for this third issue is more on the process of the transition from analog to digital rather than just focusing on the starting points and the end products. Inside, Craig Mod tells how analog to digital is more of a two-way street rather than a one-way street while discussing physical books and ebooks. Matthew Booker shows how digital productions can be used to better understand the past. Three new projects in the digital humanities are also showcased in a special section of the publication.

In the beginning of his teaching career him and a coworker created a paperless class that forced students to turn in assignments online; eventually turning it into a fully online course. Educational technology classrooms are created worldwide to use new modern ways to teach. Through online learning, students can use smaller parts to create a bigger picture which are then small parts for the collaboration of all the students work that is brought together. He leaves the readers with many questions about how to make the information accessible and accurate across the internet.
