Production value in digital media can be a big time expense. While its easier to create these items, the time to create ‘production quality media – is sort an art.’ My intuition tells me that students that engage in that form of work expression will have to start to study critique and evaluation of their digital works in much greater detail. Potentially this is sort of a literacy , the earlier you start the more likelihood you’ll understand this.

+Dee Wu This is true for writing as well… in my writing classes, I put a HUGE emphasis on revision – something the students seem almost entirely unfamiliar with. If the rise of digital media production in schools means that students start to take revision as a practice seriously (and I think it is very likely they will!), that could be very good news for writing too.
