ENGL 680M: New Media

...always and forever.

For this project, I have learned several new technologies: survey software (Qualtrics), GarageBand, iShowu, and iMovie.

I must say, I am quite proud of myself.

Hey everyone!

I would like to invite you to take my survey. We can discuss the results--and, more importantly, what they mean--during Friday's showcase!

New Media Survey

Here's another (pretty interesting) article about making money in Second Life, from Wired.

I posted my schedule as well as the corresponding readings from compose, design, advocate that correspond to our unit calendar.

Let me know if you have any questions.

We have been discussing our classrooms and our students, particularly their anxiety with writing, their inability to transfer their ideas from their heads to their papers, their lack of or different mode of critical thinking--the list could continue.

Fellow binary lovers, enjoy!

Hi everyone,

I found a Review for The New Media Reader, the text from which our readings next week come.

Hey everyone,

I thought I would post some of my questions and concerns about Always Already New as a way to continue conversation after Friday's class. I'm still thinking about several of the themes we raised in class yesterday, namely the public/private split, the differences between constructions of via narratives and public/private memories, the Web as an historical subject, and a couple others that are explored below. Perhaps we can continue discussing, posting, questioning?

You can check out different scenes from South Park where Cesar is called in to help Cartman's mom control him.

Morgan, I have been thinking about the discussion you started on Friday at the start of class. You asked if there was such a thing as a peaceful culture. I have been thinking about some pre-Civil War Indian cultures as peaceful. They valued land, each other, their peace. They fought when their hunting grounds or food supplies, which directly impacted their livelihoods, were threatened.
