"Transparent Leaf", cc Joshua Ommen

One of the main goals of our blog is to offer what we call transparency. Our blog is a place where members of the New Media Literacies team can weigh in on any aspect of our work.  We hope that our regular posts will share not only our research, but our research process. What does research in the "applied humanism" environment of CMS look like?  What happens when an academic research project tries to produce not only research and theory, but multimedia learning materials as well?  What kinds of problems do we face, and what solutions do we develop?  We consider our research process one that offers as much opportunity for learning as our research itself, and our blog is where we share our challenges our breakthroughs.

On our blog you'll also find relevant news and commentary about developments in the media literacy field, interviews with NML staff, notices about our speaking engagements, and cross-posts to and from MacArthur's digital media and learning community as well as other blogs in the CMS community.

We encourage you to register and comment on our blog, and let us know what you think about the ways we're doing research.
