Mark William Selected as DCAL Fellow for Winter 2006
The Dartmouth Center for the Advancement of Learning (DCAL) is pleased to
announce that Mark Williams has been awarded a DCAL Fellowship for Teaching and
Technology for the 2005-2006 academic year. Professor Williams is Associate
Professor and Chair of Film and Television Studies. Professor Williams
will spend his fellowship term (Winter 2006) designing and compiling a
repository of digital media to support two courses he regularly teaches - Film
Studies 50: Cyber-Theory and Film Studies 46: The Industrial Roots of the
Information Superhighway. One facet of Williams's research focuses on the
reporting and representations of disasters and catastrophes in various media.
A digital repository of video, audio, still photo and text documents will
support both his research and teaching, effectively enabling him to share his
research topics with the students in Film Studies 46 and 50.
During his tenure as DCAL Fellow, Williams will enjoy technical support
from Curricular Computing and the Library as well as regular consultations with
the DCAL staff. For more information about the fellowships and
