FYW-1293 Digital Reading, Digital Writing

Does technology change the way we think about literature? Do we write differently when our text can be converted into interactive web sites or slide presentations as easily as it can be printed out? This seminar will raise these and similar broad questions through practical, hands-on experience reading and writing with computers. Successful students will learn concepts from linguistics, data science, and literary studies, as well as gaining broadly applicable technical skills. 4 credits.
