“On a Digital Tenure Portfolio”

citation
Writer/Producer. (2009, March 31). On a Digital Tenure Portfolio [Video]. First presented at 2009 Conference on College Composition and Communication, San Francisco, CA. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oJJER7diM6c

abstract
This short movie argues for presenting my tenure materials digitally and outlines the following research questions that are relevant to a digital portfolio and multimodal scholarship:

  • How can tenure guidelines be inclusive of nontraditional scholarship?
  • How can the intellectual labor of nontraditional scholarship be demonstrated?
  • How can tenure readers evaluate nontraditional scholarship?
  • How can universities better disseminate scholarship?

The primary audience for this video is the provost and deans of my college, and I presented it at CCCC to get feedback from my disciplinary audience. (Note: The deans saw it and approved my use of a digital portfolio.) The video is linked to from my tenure portfolio: http://www.ceball.com.

“Who needs YouTube?!”

citation
Ball, Cheryl E. [Producer/Director]. (2007, Dec. 11). Who needs YouTube?! Presented at The Normal Theater, Normal, IL.

description
I produced an end-of-semester showcase for students in my Multimedia Writing Workshop (English 289.22), which was held at the historic Normal Theater. The showcase included a selection of short digital videos in a variety of genres (video poems, music videos, documentaries, memoirs, motifs, etc.) that the students had produced, and a 3-minute introduction I created to contextualize the range of texts. The introduction video, produced using a Mission: Impossible theme, includes original and found (student) footage and was composed using Audacity, Quicktime Pro, iMovie HD, and Final Cut Pro.
