Discussion Spotlight: Agency in New Media
from Dr. Nick's RhetoricSoup Blog
(from the RhetoricSoup Blog)
"New media are media that use technology to allow for easier access, and provide some avenue of interactive AGENCY for its users. For example, broadcast television, radio, magazines, and newspapers are OLD media, in that they provide information one way, with “no machinery of rejoinder” for the user."
-Intro to "Agency & New Media" Smartphone Museum Exhibit
Check out thoughts on what makes new media "new" through a photo album of the recent Smartphone Museum exhibit on the RhetoricSoup blog.
(Teaching Tip: This piece can be used as to provoke discussion on teaching, using new digital technologies, approaching complex subject matter, and more.)
