Wecome to English 269!

Composing with digital media (making meaning with words, images, and sound) will be the focus of our inquiry this quarter. We will look at the formal properties and social implications of digital media texts (visual arguments, audio essays, and digital video). We will investigate the practical (”How do I do that?”), rhetorical (”When could I do that, and why?”), and ethical (”Should I do that?”) principles of digital communication. Although no experience with digital media is required for this course, by the end of the quarter, you will have your own web site where you will publish examples of your digital work.
From that point on, you will be ready to continue developing your skills in designing and composing with digital media. Glad to have you here!
