Student Digital Media Assignment Support

Designing a quality student produced media assignment that optimizes learning and insuring students receive the support required throughout their project is not an easy task. Contact your Media Outreach & Learning Spaces Librarian, Scott Spicer, to learn how we can assist you in meeting these challenges.

Profiles in Teaching with Student Media (Case Studies)

Library Media Services has worked with dozens of instructors to integrate student media projects into their curriculum. These case studies illustrate student work, the benefits of these assignments, and support offered.

The Libraries provide access to a range of non-print media content in digital and physical formats. Notable examples include roughly 15,000 video titles at the Walter SMART Learning Commons, access to numerous media databases, and The Hugo Salazar South American Theater Collection.
