One choice is to discuss the multimedia aspects of the course. It is from answers to this question as well as an anonymous questionnaire and informal feedback that we learn students reactions to the course. Perhaps the most significant feature of the course is that students do some of their work in class in a workshop format. We have previews of the work in which we can offer praise and constructive criticism. Everyone in the class has many chances to see everyone else s work.
Students also make hardcopy printouts of their work for review by the English professor.
The course gives them and us a chance to make use of these skills for a defined purpose, discussion of the literature. Glitzy presentation without a sufficient quantity and quality of their own original content is rejected. We invite your to take a look at student work. We have continued to be surprised at how the work continues at a high level. In the second offering, we added the requirement for a monologue.
