Blog Prompt # 15: for the week of December 5-9
This week’s prompt asks you to reflect upon the ways the course has challenged you to think about the intersections between new media technology and the written word. Revisit the course goals in our syllabus before reflecting upon any or all of the following: What is the most valuable insight you have gained from studying writing within the context of new media? How did you find using the theme of adaptation for studying writing and new media worked as a lens through which to interrogate the issues we have addressed together throughout the semester? How do you feel the genre of vampire and werewolf adaptations served our purpose in the course? Might looking at adaptation in a broader context have been equally or more productive?
How do you feel about the overall success of the course? What was most helpful to you? What would you like to have seen done differently?
Respond to this prompt in your individual course blog by Saturday, December 10.
