Block

Prerequisite: consent of department. Topic may vary from semester to semester. The course may be repeated once for credit.

Students will examine the European origins of film technology and documentary film techniques before learning how to create online history exhibits. Students will use photographs as well as audio and video recorded during their visits to historic sites in order to construct online exhibits related to their academic studies while engaged in summer coursework. Basic video and audio editing software may be used to produce short documentary segments that will accompany their exhibits. Most students will use photographs instead of video. Open source software will be used to organize and develop exhibits that make use of documentary tradition in an online environment. Archival images and short film clips in the public domain will be researched and incorporated into their exhibits. Students will use their own laptop or net book computers in order to access software housed on a server. Therefore, students are not required to purchase any special software in order to participate in the course. No special computer expertise is required.

Class Rules & Attendance The University of New Orleans International Summer School program has a mandatory class attendance policy. All students are required to attend class for all classes and any required lectures and field trips. No unexcused absences are allowed. However, UIBK students who have to miss a UNO class due to UIBK examinations in the first two weeks of our program, can receive one excused absence for this. Any further unexcused class days will result in an academic penalty. Each faculty member determines the penalty for missed classes. Most professors deduct a letter grade for each additional missed class day. For details, please refer to your course syllabi, which will be distributed on the first day of class.
