Multimedia Infused Freshman Comp Live Presentation

2008 TYCA- West Annual Conference
Reaching Across Communities: Service in and out of the Classroom
Friday, October 10 & Saturday, October 11
Valley Verde Campus of Yavapai College
Clarkdale, Arizona

My presentation,
Multimedia Infused Freshman Comp (M-203), begins at 4:30pm on Friday, October 10th. Join me live right here or visit my Presentation Wiki: https://drcoop.pbwiki.com/TYCAWest08

Synopsis: Come see how the new generation of freshman composition courses use podcasting, video, still images and interactivity to engage students in the writing process. Using various Web 2.0 tools, see how podcasting can be used not only as a mode of delivering content, but also as a mode of interaction between faculty and students. Video is used not just as a prewriting activity, but also as a mode of expression and argument. These and many others can be accomplished with little training and inexpensive tools that many students already own.
