I am really looking forward to conversations about multimodal scholarship and adding lab sections to non-science courses, but I hope we will also have time to talk about the […]

I’ve previously allowed students to complete certain projects in a media format of their choice (video, site, blog, FB page, etc.), which not only brings up the grading issue, but also how they can forge competencies in both media design and course content at the same time, without overwhelming them. I may be able to bring an additional perspective of cognitive studies to the discussion.

I’d be happy to participate on the panel from a student’s perspective.

Another “management” issue to discuss in tandem might be brainstorming about how to scaffold or break these assignments up into parts for students so that they can draft and workshop them.

I love this idea too. I have had them using Prezi, Youtube, WordPress, and Facebook, but the grading is always difficult. I try to use a rubric, but it usually falls short.

I’ve been using group videos for both major and minor assignments and more or less winging it with regard to all these questions. My situation is further complicated because I can’t teach the technologies themselves. I make allowances in grading for level of technical ability – but overall, I’d like to bump these assignments up to the next level and to encourage more variety than just videos.
