ENGL 3134 - Computers, Writing, and Literature (TN eCampus)

(3 credits)

Prerequisites: ENGL 1020.

Corequisites: Students must have access to a recent-model PC with “24/7” Internet access, an established e-mail account, motivated, and self-directed learners.

What are the connections among computers, writing, and literature? That’s the focus of this course - the implications made by the Internet and computers for writing, literacy, and uses of texts. We’ll begin by examining a variety of texts available in full or in part on the Internet; then we’ll proceed to the rhetorical and technical aspects of these texts; and we’ll conclude with the production, in HTML, of student text resources. Format and layout of documents (whether they’re prepared in HTML or as wordprocessed texts) are important aspects of this course, and will be considered among the graded activities and in the broader context of good writing.
