<p>Hello, students.<br>
Welcome to the final week of the semester. Congratulations. You did it. It's the last leg of your digital journey. Please see the embedded video below for an update about the submission of your final project. Thank you for participating in this course, and congratulations to all of you on the work you have produced. It has not been an easy course or semester, but you all should be proud of yourselves. Venturing into the digital realm can be scary, especially if you have never done this type of work before. As we conclude the course, please do not hesitate to reach out if you need help on the <a href="/Crafting%20Digital%20History/4.%20Assessment/6%20Exit%20Ticket" title="6 Exit Ticket">6 Exit Ticket</a>. I am available throughout the week if needed.</p>

<p>Thank you all for a fantastic semester. It’s hard to believe we are nearing the end. Time really does fly when you’re having fun. I hope you gained a lot from this course and find the material valuable not only for historical research and knowledge creation but also for any future pursuits you undertake.<br>
Good luck with your exams and final assignments, and have a wonderful holiday season.<br>
All the best<br>
Prof. Scott Coleman</p>
