About

This course is the second of two linked courses that focus on digital content planning, creation, management and deployment.

Throughout the course, we will explore four major topics:

  • Hypertext theory
  • Readability
  • Storytelling
  • Applicable technologies

The focus is on creating original content, although we will examine issues involved in repurposing existing content. You will hone storytelling skills; integrate visuals, sound and text into meaningful forms; and understand theory underlying the storyteller’s choices. We will explore the emergence of digital media story-telling techniques, as well as ethical and technical challenges these tools present to media and society. We will discuss how rhetoric addresses the strategic language choices we make when communicating with others.

    the 3rd line in your title is cut off on my computer and almost 30% empty space above Writing….
    Otherwise pretty easy to find the info on this set up, especially compared to last quarters site!

    Kathy — the first link in Readings for Week 4 goes to CIO.com, but it’s not clear where the article is that we’re supposed to read.
