  More info

  Traditionally, formal film analysis is taught by watching films and identifying and analyzing formal film elements either in class discussion or course papers. Having students use video editing software by “slicing and dicing” existing films enables them to incorporate applied practices into their critical analysis, building confidence in their ability to identify and discuss formal elements of film because they have used these elements to create videos of their own. Even with a variety of video editing software available, few studies exist on using video editing software as a pedagogical tool for teaching film, specifically teaching formal elements about how films are put together and make meaning. This study gauges students’ perceptions on learning basic film studies concepts from more actively engaged “slicing and dicing” activities as compared to traditional reading, viewing, lecturing, and discussion activities.
• Mitchum, C., Rodrigo, R. L., & Staples, S. L. (2020). Remaining Inclusive: Crisis Correspondence Packets for Student Completion of Spring 2020 (COVID19) Writing Courses. Composition Forum, 5.
  More info

  This program profile describes the process the Writing Program at the University of Arizona took to create a pathway to course completion for students during the pandemic-induced remote transition in Spring 2020. While the majority of students continued to have access to the hardware and software necessary to complete the term online, some students did not have these critical access requirements. We designed an independent study style correspondence packet that harkens back to traditional distance education offerings. Recognizing that students might not have access to the web or library for research, instructional materials, or printers, the packets allowed students to use the resources to which they had access and mail in their materials to complete their courses. Designing and implementing this course packet allowed us to continue our mission of inclusion in a moment of crisis by meeting our students where they were as they were displaced from the institutional spaces they had been relying upon to finish their coursework. This work has given us language to use in helping our instructors continue to support their students in crisis.

  More info

  To add to the developing understanding of Web-based writing instruction, we conducted usability testing to assess the design of our online first-year composition courses at a large community college in the Southwest. Beyond the course-specific results, this study offers two primary contributions. First, it offers a model for conducting usability testing of Web-based writing classes to diagnose potential design problems in a course. This includes providing an indication of what kinds of results and data teachers should expect to gather, how to interpret that data, where to go for assistance, whom to involve in the testing process, and what to do with the results. Second, this study provides an initial understanding of guidelines for course design using Web-based technologies. These guidelines were developed by examining writing classes in the study and then comparing the results with already established principles of design from usability engineering.
