Abstract
In this article, I draw from a qualitative case study supported by theoretical framing from John Dewey and Gregory Schraw to explore how and why video composition could be a particularly useful site for the development of meta-awareness about composition within a writing course. Specifically, video opened space for rhetorically layered actions, metacognitive articulations, and interest, which led students to consider, plan for, or recount the transfer of compositional knowledge across media
