Reading and Writing in a Digital Environment

This course was taken during the summer semester before my Sophomore year.This course has taught me the ability to understand and appreciate the work that must go into creating a digital space. I have gained the skills of perfecting an ePortfolio site as well as posting regular blog posts. I have undergone basic coding and understand how a webpage comes to be. I have been able to comment and receive feedback from my peers and communicate in a way that I had never really thought of being able to do before. This class has opened my eyes to a new way of reading and writing in a digital environment.

 

“This course takes a hands-on approach to exploring reading and writing in digital (Web) environments. Students in the course consider ways that digital writing environments create opportunities for writers to address multiple audiences, to bring together visual and alphabetic texts and to involve readers in the construction of those texts. Students in the course will develop a variety of digital texts, including blogs, websites and wikis. Students’ work will be collected in an e-portfolio designed and assembled over the course of the term.”
