Among Digitized Manuscripts 292 Bibliography 311 Index of Persons 325 Index of Subjects 329 Acknowledgments This book is the result of years of slowly piecing together experience. I should note here that I have experience with coding and designing from a young age. In the final year of elementary school in 1998, I created the school’s website, and throughout my teens I made Flash animations. What also helped was that I studied mathematics in college. Coming with that background into Islamic studies obviously set me up to engage with digital humanities. In 2013, I started a weblog called The Digital Orientalist, with the intent to share my workflows and homemade hacks and tools that make life a little easier for someone in Islamic studies using a computer. Originally, my idea was to write posts that could ultimately function as paragraphs in a book-length introduction to the role of computers and digital resources for students in the humanities. As I saw it, and still is the case, students may learn research-related methodologies, and may learn how to read a text or write an essay, but rarely is there formal train- ing in how the computer is integrated into all of this. In 2015, I participated in various workshops and events at the DH Lab of Yale University, which helped me refine and reorient my endeavors. In 2016, I focused on working exclusively with digitized manuscripts. In the spring of 2017 I had prepared a more formal investigation of what it means to work with digitized manuscripts versus actual manuscripts which I presented at Freie Universität Berlin. My research stay was sponsored by the Dahlem Humanities Center, on invitation of Olly Akkerman. In the summer of that year, I had ex- panded my work into two separate articles on which I presented at Jyväskylä University, in Finland. I worked there as a postdoc in the ERC-funded project ‘Epistemic Transitions in Islamic Philosophy’, whose principal investigator is Jari Kaukua. It was Kutlu Okan, PhD candidate in that ERC project, who even- tually convinced me that I should expand the two articles into one book. The majority of the book I wrote in the academic year ’17–’18, residing at Blackfriars Priory in Cambridge, UK. The home stretch was done as part of my postdoc research grant, sponsored by the NWO (Netherlands Council for Research). I am tremendously thankful for the patronage of the Department of Philosophy and Religious Studies and the Open Access Fund, both at Utrecht University.

    FACULTY PERSPECTIVES AND PRACTICES OF SOCIAL PRESENCE IN ONLINE POST-SECONDARY LEARNING ENVIRONMENTS A Dissertation SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Julie Ann Smith IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF EDUCATION Joyce Strand, Ph.D., Adviser April 2018 a Julie Ann Smith 2018 © b Acknowledgements This dissertation would not have been able without my patient adviser, Dr. Joyce Strand, who continued to support me throughout the years and help me to finally finish this research project. The last three years of trying to finish my dissertation included the caregiving to my mother and father. My father spent over two years in assistive care at the end of battling a long war with Alzheimer’s. He needed my mother’s help and she needed mine. This, and a concurrent divorce to my husband of 23 years, prolonged my ability to complete the writing of this dissertation, thus a long time had passed since the literature review. Many thanks go to my committee and doctoral chair who patiently provided me excellent advice in educational theory, interview and survey questionnaire revisions and/or dissertation guidance: Drs. Helen Mongan-Rallis, Craig Stroupe, Terrie Shannon, and Linda Deneen, and Chair Dr. Frank Guldbrandsen. Acknowledgements also go out to the faculty survey respondents and interviewees. Without their volunteer time, participation, and input, I would not have results to advance the study of social presence in the Community of Inquiry model. Additional thanks go to the faculty and staff and my cohort of the Education Doctorate in Teaching and Learning program at the University of Minnesota Duluth in the College of Education and Human Service Professions.

Some of the most common file formats for digital data used in eScience (CSV, XML, and JSON, for example) are built atop plain text standards. Plain text representations of digital data are often preferred because plain text formats are relatively stable, and they facilitate reuse and interoperability.
