How does writing for the Internet and electronic media differ from "hard copy" writing? In this course, we will explore this issue through four Modules, increasingly interactive, designed to expose you to the basic elements of this new and growing field. Like most Internet writers, you will begin in isolation; in Module I you will produce an electronic resume, focusing on both content and presentation. Module II is an exercise in standard electronic technical writing; you will produce a proposal/Report for dissemination over the Internet, and you will collaborate with your classmates to improve both their writing and yours. Module III is a Research Project, combining collaborative work with independent Internet research writing and feedback. Module IV, the eJournal article, represents the heights to which many Internet writers aspire; you will convert your research project (from Module III) into an eJournal article, adding images and paying close attention to the details of presentation (including screen resolution, audience, and purpose).

Our primary focus this semester in this course will be on literature not as a knowledge base, but as a skill. In particular, we will be examining texts from the perspective of semiotics which is a discipline that is concerned not with "what some thing means", but why things mean and how things mean. As we will be dealing with literatures from multiple language and literary traditions, our focus will be on the common human element as opposed to cultural ideas. The one common element which humanity possesses as a species is its body; thus, we will look at the way in which our sense of body effects our sense of meaning.

The primary focus in this class is really on literatures not often encountered which affords us the luxury of not focusing on a strong existing canon which would over-shadow other literatures. Additionally, we can test various critical hypotheses while working from a literary basis other than that from which those hypotheses were developed. In short, over the course of this semester, we will approach a large number of texts from a large number of cultures from a variety of perspectives.
