Introduction to Digital Literacies has acquainted you with theories of rhetoric and communication which are prevalent in both digital and traditional environments. This assignment asks you to put into practice what you are learning by designing, researching, and delivering a rhetorically effective project that “lives” on the Web (that is, hosted and presented through some web-based platform). The topic is open, but it must be inquiry-based and research-driven.
The final project is comprised of four interrelated assignments:
· Proposal
· Oral/Visual Presentation
· Web-Based Project
· Project Assessment Memo
By completing this suite of assignments, culminating in your Web-Based Project and attendant Project Assessment Memo, you will demonstrate both an understanding of the common genres and norms of digital writing work, and facility with producing work which is rhetorically effective online.
