for Class 2 PM
"Composing with digital video--creating digital stories, book trailers,
music videos, screencasts, and more--requires an examination of how we
produce, distribute, invent, explore, persuade, and create impact with
texts written fro specific audiences. Composing with digital video
alongside Web 2.0 tools enables opportunities for leveraging audience
participation for authentic collaboration and feedback. Writing with
multimedia tools is a process of linking message and tool, purpose and
audience--while actively critiquing the very tools used for expressing
meaning." --Sara Kajder and Carl Young in Teaching with Digital Video
