Technology Leap
Guide
Based on your own interests
in media and leadership, you will select one new or existing media,
instructional tool, or piece of software to thoroughly evaluate and
on which you will briefly report. The oral report is worth up to 26
points. Your research can be about a new technology (e.g., virtual
reality), a new piece of software you have discovered, or a new use
of an older technology (e.g., how to use a fonts and typefaces
effectively).
Your Technology Leap is:
an oral report lasting about 8-10 minutes (really no more than 8-10 minutes! Practice your presentation and time yourself) in which you demonstrate/discuss your new technology or software. If possible, prepare visuals to enhance your presentation. You will be responsible for monitoring the time limit--see our course schedule on the syllabus for due date (worth up to 26 points).
Collect any visuals you use, and any
other documentation (brochures, samples, etc.) in your
Learning
Portfolio.
