*** July 2023 - Important HumBox Update ***

Following a heartening response to our previous notice, the University of Southampton is currently exploring options to keep HumBox going. We can confirm the site will remain live for the foreseeable future.

Thank you everyone for your ongoing support!

Welcome to HumBox

The Humbox resource was created in 2009 as part of the Open Educational Resources initiative funded by JISC and the HEA. Running on the EdShare open digital content platform Humbox has provided a new way of storing, managing and publishing Humanities resources on the web. The Humanities community has shared handouts, exercises, podcasts, videos and much more.

OT12 Resources on HumBox

The OT12 MOOC in Open translation was run by the Department for Modern Languages at the Open University. It has now finished, but you can find open resources related to the course here on HumBox in the Open Translation group or by searching under 'ot12'.

OpenLIVES - Spanish emigre stories

The JISC-funded OpenLIVES project has used the HumBox to publish a selection of life history interviews documenting the experiences of Spanish migrants in the 20th Century. A team comprising Spanish researchers and students from Southampton, Leeds and Portsmouth has created OERs using this data and shared them here!
