Multimodality in Composition

Scott Lloyd DeWitt, The Ohio State University
Director, The Digital Media Project

Session Description: This workshop will explore the use of digital media in the
contexts of our varied college composition programs. We will consider a range of contemporary digital literacy practices—alphabetic, visual, audio—while imagining composition classes that include a meaningful course of study in the analysis and production of multimodal texts. The workshop will include examples of students’ digital media work that illustrate innovative, rhetorically–based approaches to composing.
