Summary:

Now that he, like many teachers of composition, is taking account of his student's savvy in mixing media, Palmeri (English and interactive media, Miami U., Ohio) began to worry that there was no traditional pedagogy for multimedia composition. He looked back at the classic education texts from the 1960s through the 1980s and found ways that they alluded to cross-platform composition that in fact could not be done at the time except in allusion. Here he explains how to adapt and incorporate those techniques into the new environment. His overall themes are that composition has always already been multimodal, and the technologies that composition forgot when they were no longer new.
