Digital Memories Project Reviews Vol. V
Theme: Collaboration
In Professor Aránzazu Borrachero’s spring 2025 course titled Digital Memories: Theory and Practice, students reviewed a varied range of digital memory projects through a critical lens to assess the effectiveness of the individual approaches to preserve collective memory. The volume includes an introductory note by the Professor and the editors along with the curated collection of thirty three insightful reviews. The editors designed the collection around the theme of collaboration and grouped the reviews under broad categories further classified by the author identified keywords listed below each individual review. Each reviewer considered the existing collaborative aspects and proposed future collaborations that could benefit the project. We present this volume both as a scholarly contribution as well as a model to develop collaborative publications.
