Digital Lives & Futures
What are we getting from the internet, and what do we give it in return? In this colloquium we’ll explore the impact of digital media in our lives and society. Through experiential learning, creative work, reading and discussion, students will develop a deeper understanding of our dynamic media environment. Ultimately, we’ll consider possibilities for engaging, reshaping, and resisting digital technologies in order to build the futures we want.

Before you settle on a topic, it's a good idea to do some background research first. The library is a great source for background information!
Now that you've done some background research, it's time to narrow your topic. Remember: the shorter your final paper, the narrower your topic needs to be.
After you've refined your topic, it's time to start searching for sources. Do you need books, articles, or something else?
It's always a good idea to evaluate sources before using them in your assignment. Do you need to have scholarly sources or the most recent research?
Pull everything together to share your argument and your evidence. Tie ideas from your sources together with your own thoughts and analysis to make a compelling case.
