This experience is the main project for the course, ENG- W315-Writing for the Web. Students will collaborate with a non-profit organization on an online writing project. Students will also complete a multimodal project and a reflective essay as well as several shorter writing assignments. Students benefit from the experience of working with a real organization on a real project that will ultimately be published to one of the organization’s stakeholders. Local non-profit organizations benefit from free help on a project on which they need assistance. ENG- W315: Writing for the Web introduces students to the material conditions of composing for computer-mediated environments. The overarching course goals are: 1) To promote in students an understanding of the texts and technologies that shape online communication; 2) To help students develop abilities to respond critically to the rhetorical demands of the contemporary internet; 3) To provide opportunities to display evidence of their learning.
