Designing for Mobile Media, Collaborative Production, and New Literacies in College Classrooms

Abstract

As technology continues to proliferate our everyday lives, in this paper, we take a design-based approach to explore how we can leverage such technologies in the design of learning environments. Specifically, we present our active, iterative design of a college course and our analysis of students’ project trajectories throughout the semester. We offer design considerations as a preliminary framework for designing New Literacy learning environments that include emerging digital and mobile technologies
