Assigning Multimedia Projects to Students

August 29, 2007

Multimedia projects can engage students in the content of your class and allow them to demonstrate their learning in creative, engaging ways. Multimedia projects can include video, digital images, audio files, music, PowerPoint, etc. Examples of multimedia projects can include:

In a foreign language course, students can narrate a story in the foreign language, giving them a chance to perfect their oral language skills.
In a literature class, students can find imagery to demonstrate their understanding of a text or to put a new spin on a text.
In a biology class, students can document and explain the steps they’ve taken to complete a lab or hands-on project.

The Academic Technology Center has many resources that may be useful to you and your students with regards to multimedia projects. For details, visit these links:
