The Digital Media and Composition Institute (DMAC) is a two week institute focused on the effective use of digital media in college composition classrooms.[1] It has been held annually at The Ohio State University each summer from 2006 to the present. Its predecessor, the Computers in Writing-Intensive Classrooms (CIWIC) institute, was held annually between 1985 and 2005. Participants receive graduate credit from The Ohio State University.[2]


DMAC participants study digital literacy, including alphabetic, visual, audio, and multimodal practices, and create digital projects. Participants may post at the DMAC Blog located at http://www.ryantrauman.net/dmacblog/. Other projects include "DMAC Theory" by Ryan Omizo at http://kairos.technorhetoric.net/redesign/13.1/disputatio/omizo/index.htm and David Coad's "The Possibilities of Multimodal Composition" at http://multimodalcomp.wordpress.com.
