Embracing Multimodal Learning
Taylor began by discussing the evolution in literacy that has been taking place over recent decades. When he arrived at the UNCCH English Department, it did not yet have Internet, but changes came about quickly. In 2000 UNCCH became one of the first large universities to have a laptop requirement. The racing technological evolution changed what it meant to be literate in a modern university, and resulted in a need to teach broader and more diverse skills. Taylor pointed out that almost all universities in the US are rethinking their general education experience. We are being asked to demonstrate what we are doing to enhance student growth and experience, and why. The result is the adoption of new technology platforms, which provide not only improved tools for students to synthesize their learning, but also finished, creative samples that can be displayed to prospective students.
