DESCRIPTION
TRANSCRIPT
Reflection and Assessment in Multimodal Projects
Integrate Informal Reflective Composing Throughout
• Use audio “free composing” as a way to develop script and reflect on process
• Keep a list of “rhetorical choices”—at least five new choices each class period.
• Write mini-rhetorical analyses of sample texts in the genre.
• Annotate the “script” with comments explaining particular rhetorical choices
Design Activities to Encourage Rhetorical Decision Making
• Create three versions with different soundtracks and/or no soundtrack (write about which would be most effective for audience)
• Practice Copia (rewrite sentences 5 – 10 different ways and decide which is best)
• Cut up the script or re-edit the audio to create two versions with different arrangement (discuss which is most effective for audience)
• Try two different styles of vocal delivery (decide which is best)
Integrate (Peer) Response Throughout
• Scripts / Proposals / Audio “Free composing”• Zero drafts• First Drafts• Alternate Versions
Mix up paired response and whole class workshopping (Require written as well as oral responses)
Rubric for Media Text
• Collaboratively develop rubric with the class by analyzing sample student and professional texts in the genre.
• Debate which criteria could apply across forms of composing and which are medium / modality specific
Reflective essay
• Require a full draft of the reflective essay with the first draft of the project
• Make the reflective essay worth half the project grade.
• Make the reflective essay substantial in scope (at least 1000 words or 5 minutes of audio)
• Develop rubric for reflection
Possible Reflective Rubric• Clearly defines a specific purpose and audience, explains how the
project is adapted to them.• Discusses specific rhetorical choices (e.g. word/image/sound choice,
arrangement, vocal delivery, rhetorical appeals).• Provides a rhetorical analysis of your own text (employing key rhetorical
concepts and textual citations to explain why it is or is not persuasive)• Offers detailed evidence of a robust, recursive process (discusses
specific strategies used for generating and revising ideas, offers specific evidence of how the project changed over time—what was left out and why)
• Provides specific examples of what you learned about writing / rhetoric and how you learned it (including some reference to the learning outcomes of the course).
