Margo Ballantyne of Lewis and Clark College follows up the NITLE Camp mobile track with a student mobile project on graffiti in New York City.  Find out more about the LC Graffiti Project on their blog.

Kathy Filatreau and Sonia Chaidez of Whittier College present their poster, "Digital Storytelling: The Circuit to Build 21st Century Literacy Skills."

The community meetings at NITLE Camp on June 22 continued with a poster session where participants and presenters could discuss projects individually and in more detail.  Posters covered a variety of topics including digital storytelling, Moodle, digital scholarship, Google Earth, social media, student technology internships and multimedia projects.

Abstracts for the NITLE Camp Poster session are available online here: Poster Session Abstracts.
