Video 5.1 - Media Project Brainstorming

In this video, students review their brainstorming ideas about the media project assignment. Dawn reviews possible types of media students might use and reminds students to connect their media project to the main ideas of their paper. In this conversation, Dawn also reviews the role of audience and purpose considerations students should think about while working on their media project. In this way, students are guided through the composition process, just like they would approach the writing process for print work. Students need to make purposeful decisions in the preparation stages of the media project, and the sharing of ideas and drafts, as well as peer response work, are also valuable with media work. Additionally, in this video, Dawn aims to make the work manageable for students. To help them narrow their focus and think carefully about the major ideas of their paper, Dawn invites students to narrow their ideas to look at one key paragraph from their writing and use that as a focus. For some students who needed help with brainstorming, this was a helpful way to focus their ideas. In this video, George shares his ideas to use “Hackasaurus” (the previous name of the Mozilla Webmaker X-Ray Goggles) to capture one image and then change the title over the image. After George shares his example, other students immediately are ready to jump in and talk through this idea with George. Walking through the process of media work with students is important to help them see how print and digital texts are purposeful compositions and that print and media compositions can work together to share information in smart ways.
