Students analyze how rhetoric works and doesn't work in the digital age by studying the circulation of knowledge, identity, and culture online and through new digital technologies. By reading classic and contemporary works of rhetorical scholarship, students explore how rhetoric shapes communities, including the emerging digital culture. Additionally, students draw on rhetorical strategies to participate in digital culture, to investigate their own digital identities, and to think critically about the culture envisioned by Silicon Valley and the tech industry.
