Instructions

1. Watch: Professor Hull's Welcome Video (Links to an external site.) View Professor Hull's video Welcome Video.

2. Add an Asset: Add an image, video, gif, or audio file to the Asset Library that represents what it means to be literate in the world today. In the Description field, explain how your asset represents literacy. Be sure to add the hashtag #mylitworld to the description. If necessary, view the Asset Library tutorial screencast (Note: there is no audio for this screencast.)

3. Add 2 Comments. Use the Search feature in the Asset Library to find the #mylitworld posts. Comment on two of them. Try to find one post that is similar to yours, and one post that is different from yours. Explain similarities/differences in the comments.

Guidelines for Commenting:

In order to create a rich discussion forum and meaningful learning environment, we ask that you reflect, analyze, or critique the post you are commenting on. Please avoid statements such as "cool work!" or "I like this asset" since such general statements neither delve deep into the content of the post nor do they reflect your insights. We invite you to make connections across posts, course concepts, and your own experience. While we invite you to disagree, challenge assumptions, and problematize course concepts, we want this to be a safe space for each member of our community and therefore we expect posts to be respectful and inclusive.
