[Air-L] Web Studies instruction

[Liza Potts]

Hi Gordon,

We may have a few distance classes through ODU's graduate distance program
that might be of interest. Our focus is on digital culture, design/writing,
and practice. We have professors whose backgrounds span communication,
cultural studies, design, linguistics, professional writing, rhetoric.

Over the summer, we have a doctoral institute that is taught two weeks
online, two weeks in person, and two weeks online. In it, I will be teaching
a seminar called Tracing Digital Culture while another professor will be
teaching a seminar on new media theory. In the Fall, we have distance
classes that are taught through live video streaming. I will be teaching a
course on Social Media, and there will be a course on new media practices.

Feel free to contact me if you want more information.

Take care,
Liza
