Proposal

During this course you are learning a variety of ways to use digital media in educational contexts. Of the possible uses, the most powerful are those in which students create their own media.

This course project will require you to use the knowledge you have gained to create something useful for your classroom. For your course project, you will create a mini-unit containing lessons that you will teach in your classroom integrating multimedia and multiliteracies. The mini-unit must be grounded in your classroom curriculum and require students to create a multimedia product. This must clearly engage your students in using digital media for the acquisition, analysis, construction, and presentation of knowledge.

For the first part of the project, create a preliminary description that that contains the following:

Briefly address the following questions: 1. What is your chosen subject area, theme or topic? 2. Who is your intended audience? (Please briefly describe your students) 3. What standards are you addressing from your curriculum? 4. What are the educational goal(s) and objective(s)? 5. What is the specific problem or question you will pose? 6. What will be the specific assignment the students must accomplish? 7. What is the expected outcome of the lesson?

Your project needs to focus on integrating literacy and/ or media production into the curriculum. Please add state and national standards.
