Digital Publishing is Over!

I would give this class two thumbs up, and a solid 9.5 out of 10, because there is always room for improvement. When I first came to Dr. Lang’s Digital Publishing class, I didn’t expect much because as I stated multiple times, I believe myself to be digitally illiterate. That said, I did expect some…

15: Reflection

What were you expecting? How the class did/didn’t meet expectations? When I signed up for digital publishing, I was mainly signing up for it because I needed a 300-level English class. As the class comes to an end, however, I’m starting to realize that a lot of the information in this class is valuable in…

15. Course Reflection

When I signed up for this course, my expectations were quite broad. I’m not generally one to focusing on expectations, but there were definitely subconscious ones. I found myself assuming that the class would be extremely tech-heavy, which it was, and that there would be a lot of reading, which there was. I also hoped…

15: A Bittersweet Farewell

I was expecting a small bit of death when I signed up for this. Despite the course description, I was largely unsure of what to expect in this course. I was pleasantly surprised that I really enjoyed and understood the content and coursework at the beginning. I was expecting it to be very focused on…

15: Reflection

Based on the survey that was taken before the semester started, I was expecting more projects directly relating to different programs. I thought that we might do a project specifically with photoshop, a project specifically with movie editing software, a project specifically with GarageBand, etc. I didn’t realize how much freedom we would get with…

15. Relfection

Having had publishing classes in the past, I think that I was prepared for what this class would be discussing because I was already familiar with a lot of digital genres. I think that as a senior about to graduate, I was hoping it would involve getting some marketable skills to use in the future….

15: Reflection

I took this class as a requirement (sorry, Dr. Lang). I hoped that it would have some material related to the hypertext project I had done and loved doing in the fall of junior year—that material was interesting and I hoped I would learn more about that, and hoped that there would be material related…

15. Reflection

I wasn’t sure what to expect with this class. Because it was a 300 level course and I’m only a freshman I was really nervous about the difficulty of the course. But because last semester I took Intro to Modern Publishing with Dr. Lang, I was a little more reassured that I would actually survive…

15: Reflexshun

Going into the class, I expected the class to be more about the history of digital publishing or what constitutes digital publishing.  I did not expect the class to place as much focus on the creation of my own digital media.  I was hoping, going into this class, that it would provide me with some…

15: Reflection

When signing up for this class, I was expecting to have discussions on what digital publishing is, reading articles on the subject, and how digital publishing adapted and enhanced in today’s world. The class met and exceeded my expectations. I thought this would be a typically – lecture and listen type of class setting. I…
