Throughout this semester, you have responded to class readings, reflected on your own creative process, and engaged with other students on issues related to nonlinearity, remediation, advocacy, and media in general.
For this response, you will be responding to your own writing instead of a specific reading. Take some time to look back through your multimodal responses and process work, taking notice of ideas that evolved over the course of the semester, themes that you returned to, or places where your approach to a concept shifted course.
Draw together your observations and reflect on what you notice in relation to your multimodal writing this semester. Listed below are some questions to guide your reflection, but you're not required to answer all (or any) of these if you find your reflection taking a different shape:
What ideas and assumptions did you have about multimodality at the beginning of the semester, and how did you add to, challenge, or change those ideas as the semester progressed?
How do you see yourself adapting to the constraints and affordances of different platforms, technologies, materials, and forms of media across the semester?
What consistencies and inconsistencies do you notice in your thoughts on media and digital networks?
Which ideas that you've articulated across these responses and in-class writings stick with you, and why? How do you think you'll explore or encounter those ideas beyond this class? Which ideas that you've outlined leave less of an impression, and why do you think that is?
How has your view of writing changed since the beginning of the semester, and how do you see that taking shape in your responses?
Your response can take the form of a written essay or journal-type text, a vlog, audio recording, concept map, or timeline. Screenshots or quotes of the work that you're referring to will help ground your discussion and give me a better sense of the specifics that you're referring to in your reflection.
Response due December 5 at 9:30am. Upload to your individual website.
