LLS 1310 - New Media Fusion

Credits: 3 hrs.

Are you tired of the same-old writing assignments? Would you like to transform your writing with the wizardry of new digital media? “Writing” no longer means that you are limited to static text on the printed page. Now you can combine words, sound, video, and images to create blogs, wikis, and multimedia digital projects. In this seminar, you will explore culture and identity while developing essential written communication, technology, and research skills. You will plan, write, and edit new media projects with user-friendly Web 2.0 technology. No previous technology experience is required; whether a techie or technophobe, all are welcome.
