Literacy, Popular Culture, and Technology

“I would never suggest that students only learn to express their ideas through video, particularly in high-stakes test preparation. However, it is worth noting that since I have been using digital video, a larger class dialogue has emerged over what ‘composition’ and ‘writing’ are."
