Multimedia - Marking criteria

Best aspects? Choosing our own topic and writing a chapter that was meaningful to us, using a new medium that extended our skills. Learning to use the Wiki, and writing in this way was more relevant to real life than an essay. Really engaging unit!Worst aspects?did not like at all the focus on wikiversity and multimedia/social media aspect ... overly challenging to be learning the content as well as the medium.
