New Media Lab

THE NEW MEDIA LAB (NML) assists City University of New York (CUNY) Graduate Center faculty and doctoral students from a variety of academic disciplines to create multimedia projects based on their own scholarly research. Our goal is to integrate new media into traditional academic practice, challenging scholars to develop fresh questions in their respective fields using the tools of new technology. The NML is committed to a vision of new technology based on open access to ideas, tools, and resources.

With ongoing support from CUNY, the New Media Lab has become a dynamic environment in which projects funded by the National Endowment for the Humanities, the Rockefeller Foundation, the Old York Library Foundation, and other private and public sources demonstrate new approaches and methods of merging digital media, scholarship, and learning.

Located in room 7388.01 at the CUNY Graduate Center and run under the auspices of the Center for Media and Learning / American Social History Project, NML researchers:

work across academic disciplines to produce scholarly digital media projects;

analyze Internet usage in the educational, social, and commercial sectors;

construct 3-D environments that explore ways of visualizing the arts, humanities, and sciences

digitally archive and analyze a wide range of data
participate in public programs that address the critical intersection of knowledge and technology

CUNY Academic Commons Usability Study

  • Forwarding from Samantha Raddatz:

    Hi All,

    We are looking for volunteers to sit down with a member of our team for 30-45 minutes, use the CUNY Academic Commons, and provide feedback. Participation in this study will consist of 5 simple tasks on the Commons and a questionnaire about the experience.

    These sessions will take place between August 11th and 14th, can be scheduled according to your convenience, and will take place at the Graduate Center, Borough of Manhattan Community College, or another CUNY College of your choice. We guarantee your confidentiality for this research, and we will only contact you to schedule a time for the session.

    Please contact us using this form ( https://docs.google.com/forms/d/141r_n7g8VyGEtCx6ZyAwDwrXG9YCGo8IV4Ei9zY5lT4/viewform?usp=send_form
    ) if you’d like to participate in this or any future CUNY Academic Commons research.

    Thank you!

    Best,
