Last week, a final screening for Producing and Directing and Genres of Media Production: Children's Television was held in Annenberg Hall! These screenings included multiple episodes about Merpit, Coco, Lulu, Lump, and Scrunch the puppets, all created in the Loretta C. Duckworth Scholar Studios Makerspace! Scroll through to see the students who worked to create these short videos!

Applications are still open through next week for the Makerspace Grant, which provides faculty support to help integrate Makerspace tools into course design. This can be in the way of content delivery and/or creating assignments that encourage students to interact with the Makerspace and the tools available to them.

In the Season 9 finale , Jeff Rients, Associate Director discusses What if learning didn't have to be either/or? He highlights Universal Design for Learning strategies that offer students multiple ways to engage with content—readings, slides, audio, and video. By pairing formats and presenting ideas in different voices and media, instructors support diverse ways of learning and understanding. With UDL, flexibility isn’t optional—it’s how learning works best for everyone!
