Today we discussed non-text media and how the change from analog to digital formats, production, and distribution has changed how we interact with various media. Next week we’ll be discussing participatory media as well as issues of access to information and media.
A reminder: the college is closed on Monday, February 20. On Tuesday, February 21, classes run on a Monday schedule, so we’ll meet both Tuesday and Wednesday of next week.
For Tuesday, February 21, read Web 2.0; Baker, The Charms of Wikipedia and view two videos: Social Media in Plain English and Social Networking in Plain English. Write one reading response blog post.
For Wednesday, February 22, read Martin, The Politics of Research and write one reading response blog post.
Slides from today are available here.
