Abstract
This work examines the use of digital video commentaries in first-year college composition courses to engage students in effective forms of critical reflection. By exploring DVD commentaries and student digital video commentary projects, I make a case for the unique merits of incorporating digital video reflections in composition courses. In this project, I argue that teaching critical reflection through DVD commentaries and student digital video commentary projects provides students a generative method of reflection and practice in designing, producing, revising, and distributing their work. By applying Donna Qualley s concept of reflexive inquiry, I analyze student digital video projects and consider both the possibilities and limits of this method of reflection. Finally, I make recommendations for future student digital video commentary projects.
