Reflection

I wasn’t really sure what to expect coming into this class. The survey Dr. Lang sent out before class began gave me the impression we would be learning about the aesthetics of and functional skills needed to produce online content and media. My expectations were more than met. There was fantastic discourse on how digital media and the internet have changed the way we communicate, and the new things we have to consider when we create media in a digital world. There is a lot to be considered in how audience experiences your media that is different than classic text. The biggest thing I’ve learned is how to analyze what different webpages are doing in terms of how they’re are interacting and affecting an audience. I would get rid of the blog posts because I hate them, but I understand they are a useful teaching tool.
