    Abstract:
    Curatorial note from Digital Pedagogy in the Humanities: Harper College’s Grendel, designed by Richard Johnson and Kurt Neuman as part of the 1999 NEH grant project, is noteworthy for its interactivity in a pre–Web 2.0 context and is an early instance of community college faculty members recognizing the value of humanities computing for student engagement and participation. Using e-mail to participate, students can identify and define significant words from Beowulf and have their work included in an online glossary. RAM files play back pronunciations. The same Web-based e-mail system is used to support student annotations and translations of lines.
