Writing and Editing in Print and Online
Nicole Sirota

Today, writers don't just inscribe words on paper. Students in this course will compose written, visual, and/or auditory texts, using a variety of technologies, all in the context of Bolter and Grusin's suggestion (in Remediation) that different media are always informing each other. Students will be expected to create texts (1) for the page (2) the screen, and (3) the network. Each text will also be edited in accord with its medium. In addition, at least one of these texts will be re-purposed for another medium. Students will conclude the course by creating a digital portfolio. Texts include Palmquist, Designing Writing; the McGraw-Hill Handbook; and Kimball, The Web Portfolio Guide.
