About this course
This is an interdisciplinary course that draws from the fields of Composition Studies and Digital Humanities. Though varied definitions of the digital humanities exist, the methods and materials of this course will center around the definition of the digital humanities as a community of practice where the learning, construction, and sharing of humanities knowledge is undertaken with the application of digital technologies in a reflexive, theoretically informed, and collaborative manner.In light of this definition, this course will focus on the new literaciesrequired of the 21st century and the contiguous social and critical dimensions of these communicative practices. Students will examine emergent digital tools, digital composition, and digital or ?new? media and literacies within the context of the history and theories of literacy studies. Students will analyze, critique, evaluate, and create multi-media texts. Central to the course will be reflection on the process(es) of composing including: invention, drafting, and revision across multiple modes, media, and genres.
