WRI 220 Writing on and for the Web

The course examines the many types and uses of internet-based writing from a rhetorical (that is, audience- and purpose-oriented) perspective. Students will be asked to research, reflect on, and compose in multiple online genres, including blogs, social networking environments, wikis, content management systems, and standalone websites. The final result will be an online portfolio of each student's writing that reflects rhetorical awareness of audience, purpose, and production on the World Wide Web.
