Making Effective Use of Multi Media in Project Work

Saturday, March 23rd, 2002, 2:00 PM - 5:00 PM

Speaker: Simon Cole

This presentation looks at the experience of a multi-media project at a private High School. In the project, students used a reader-response approach to study the lyrics of an English pop-song. They then used computer software to produce a visual for karaoke, then synchronized subtitles with the song. Students then produced a written justification for their visual with reference to the song's lyrics. The presentation will look at some of the lessons of the project and will attempt to make some generalizations about effective ways to use multi-media in the classroom.
