ENG 3416 Spring 2018 Cicchino

ENG 3416 (WEPO) is one of three core courses for EWM, and as such, it helps provide a foundation for the major. As part of this foundation, this course introduces you to the principles of composing and editing across different media environments, paying special attention to how your process will be affected when working in different contexts, with different materials and genres, for different audiences. This course attempts to help you (1) understand principles of composing and rhetoric, especially the ways they function across different composing spaces; (2) compose for each of three spaces—print (including posters, flyers, newsletters, pamphlets, and booklets), digital (screen), and network (internet) using different technologies and design strategies; (3) edit and revise appropriately the texts created in each space; and (4) understand the relationships that exist across and between texts, technologies, and materials.
