DIGITAL INTRO
Connecting disciplinary content with modern digital skills
through project-based learning
Welcome to Digital Intro where we are transforming introductory courses into active, project-based experiences. Our projects expose students to a wide range of digital skills as they learn traditional disciplinary content. Within our digital “Introduction to Psychology” course, students explore concepts and content in the field of psychology through video storytelling, programming, data visualization, web development, design and more. This novel curriculum solidifies new content knowledge, exposes students to modern digital tools and provides the opportunity to create tangible learning artifacts.
The goal is learning through the creation of “stunning acts of communication”, an idea that is both aspirational and we believe, wholly achievable. Even more than introducing students to a discipline, digital-intro creates opportunities to learn leading digital tools and software platforms that empower students to enter the expanding digital workforce.
