Welcome to our 110 Class Blog. The goal of our blog is to extend our theme discsussion beyond the classroom and to broaden our understanding of new technology rhetoric in the media.
Over the course of the quarter, student groups will submit for discussion other blogs found online relating to our course theme. Each week a member of the student group presenting will post to our blog both a link to the blog under review as well as questions and/or discussion prompts for analyzing that blog. The rest of the class will then read through the prompts and the comments submitted and write their own brief response to the post.
