Professional Development
In the past year, Hamilton College, Colgate University, and St. Lawrence University, supported by a NITLE Instructional Innovation Fund grant, collaborated to develop interdisciplinary assignment models that promote media scholarship by students across the curriculum. In this presentation, we will report on our efforts to date in developing assignment models and evaluation criteria for multimodal student scholarship. These efforts are an attempt to capitalize on student interest in digital media with the goal of deepening engagement with course content and effectively synthesizing it into a multi media format.
