Title: Digital Rhetoric
Course Section Number: RHE-370-01
Department: Rhetoric
Description: Have you ever wondered how fantasy football, Twitch, YikYak, and Craigslist are connected? Did you know that with every snap you send or Netflix recommendation that you watch you are engaging in rhetoric? In today's technologically mediated world, digital and non-digital spaces, performances, and socio-cultural norms are increasingly intertwined. Students in this course will study digital rhetoric theories, methods, and practices to better understand how these spaces, performances, and norms construct and negotiate meaning through multimedia. We will study digital rhetoric through a variety of technologies, platforms, and networks-particularly those linked to/through the Internet. Our assignments and in-class discussions will culminate in a semester-long literature review of an original student-research proposal that contributes to the scholarly investigation of digital rhetoric as a critical cultural practice.
