| Public Speaking: Speaking Digital Publics will examine what it means to “speak” to a “public” in the digital age. Students will engage in the production and analysis of digital forms of public speaking, such as vlogs, Zoom presentations, podcasts, videos, and social media posts. We will collectively ask where and how digital publics are addressed, to what ends, and in what forms. We will develop rhetorical frameworks for analyzing and preparing forms of digital public address and reflect on how these frameworks might prepare us for public speaking IRL.
This course will meet online synchronously (that is, live at the designated meeting time) via Zoom.
This course satisfies the Second Writing Requirement (SWR). |
