Our discussion today focused on “born digital” media and how our ability to interact with news media, books, and online content has an effect on the production of that media. On Thursday we will discuss non-text media, including sound, images, and multimedia. Please read Pavlik pp. 79-84, Sisario, “Muve music, for mobile users, thrives in shadow of competitors,” and Elton, “Love for Labels.” See the off-campus access instructions if you need help accessing the Elton article from a library database. Your blogging assignment is one reading response blog post of at least 100 words.
Discussion facilitators for Thursday are Tojo and Shamekia. See the course schedule for the discussion facilitator schedule for the rest of the semester.
Slides from today are available here.
