Will present research on how DS relates to issues of identity, and how DS has been used to support language and literacy development in community contexts.
Mark Evan Nelson, Assistant Professor, National Institute of Education, Singapore
Will offer an international perspective, analyzing the multimedia creation processes of a group of Japanese undergraduate EFL students.
