Journal of Educational Technology, v3 n4 p51-53 Jan-Mar 2007
This article describes and documents the teaching and learning in a new undergraduate course at Rowan University in Glassboro, New Jersey, USA. Students investigate the meaning of literacy in today's rapidly changing, technological world. They explore multiliteracies, ultimately weaving them into a multimedia statement--a mini documentary on a topic of choice. Students learn and use iMovie software to create their final projects. They experience success and satisfaction as well as a new found understanding of literacy today.
