HON 39ASVT:Video-essays for Changemake

Catalog

Prerequisite(s): ENG 1020 or ENG 1021 with a grade of C or better This course introduces the video essay as an interdisciplinary methodology and technology for learning. Students explore and create multi-media format video-essays blending research, storytelling, and visual expression to examine how media can spark reflection, dialogue, and positive change in contemporary society. Students think across boundaries to draw from disciplines extending beyond their own field of study to reflect critically on how the languages, archives, and perspectives of different fields shape our understanding of pressing social, ecological, and cultural issues.
