Welcome to Principles of New Media

We will be using this Blogs@Baruch website for all our course work this semester: https://blogs.baruch.cuny.edu/pnmsp19/

I highly recommend bookmarking our course site so it is easy find.

I am looking forward to meeting you all later this week on Thursday at 5:50pm, in room NVC 12-140.

This is a Hybrid course. This means that we will meet in-person once a week. Because we only meet once a week, a significant amount of work for this course will take place online. Online assignments will task you with exploring new web platforms, reading about and discussing new technologies, keeping up on tech news, developing a digital project, and more!

You will need access to a stable and secure Internet connection for this class. Sometimes, you will need to use a desktop computer to complete your work.

Before class on Thursday please do the following:

  1. Read this short article: “5Cs: The New Media Technologies: Overview and Research Framework” by L&H Freidman (2008)
  2. Sign-in to Blogs@Baruch using the same [username/pw] that you use to log into school computers
  3. Join our course site by clicking “Join This Site”  in the right side bar (must be signed in to join)
  4. Explore the Course Schedule to see what we will be covering this semester

Please email me if you have any questions: laure.hurson@baruch.cuny.edu

See you soon!

Professor Hurson
