What You'll Learn
ELG369 Language, Technology and Digital Media reviews our everyday relationship with technology and examines the impact of computer-mediated communication on the way we interact, communicate, and think about ourselves. As digital literacies continually evolve, it becomes critical for people to understand and effectively deploy available linguistic and semiotic resources to construct their identities, acquire knowledge, and expand their social and professional networks. This course provides students with the theoretical and analytical tools for exploring the linguistic dimensions and social impact of various digital literacy practices. Students will learn about the major concepts, issues, problems, and debates surrounding language, technology and digital media, and will be able to reflect on and critically evaluate their own language and communication practices in an increasingly technologized world.
