On page 172, D. Selfe outlines the minimal computer hardware and software specifications for multimodal composition. With technology constantly progressing, how useful is this table?

On page 162, D. Selfe states that "Students are rarely afforded an opportunity to lead, help teach, and engage in projects that are ongoing and sustantial. As a result, good students are often hungry for such experiences, and teachers of multimodal composition have the opportunity each term to offer them exceptionaly rich leadership opportunities." As composition instructors, do we see the utility in this? Should we recognize also, in the tradition of deconstruction, that leader and follower are two dependent relationship, and that there is fluidity between them? Should we not also recognize this for ourselves? And if so, what are the representations of this relationship? Finally if we value this paradigm, how can multimodal composition help us achieve this?
