This virtual session will feature two scholars of Japan introducing how they integrated digital media into their classrooms, from the development of assignments to their execution, while considering the pedagogical benefits (and pitfalls) of engaging with online tools. PAULA R. CURTIS (Yale University) will address the use of Wordpress, Instagram, and Twitter for reflection and discussion assignments in small-scale seminar settings. TRISTAN R. GRUNOW (Pacific University) encourages scholars to consider podcasts as both substitutes for traditional print-based reading assignments, and as digital alternatives to written assessments. </div><div>	 </div><div>	<u>Panelists</u>:<br><a href="http://prcurtis.com/">PAULA R.
