Students edit the videotape of their literature circle session in order to reflect on their communication and collaboration skills. They are also creating a piece of media to explain to other students and teachers how literature circles work, thereby learning about media by creating media. They are writing and editing for a specific purpose and audience. Their motivation is genuine because they need to communicate clearly in order to persuade their audience that litera- ture circles are worthwhile and doable.
