\nThis course explores new ways that we communicate and the technological means in which these communications are made possible. To exchange information over a distance greater than naked physical senses can access, technological appendages are required. Traditional media communication has relied on technologies such as books, radio, television, telephones, etc. for most of the 19th and 20th centuries. Since the onset of the information age or digital revolution within the last two decades, telecommunication technologies have all but ditched their traditional analog foundations in favor of much more robust, versatile and relatively inexpensive digital offspring.<\/p>\n
\nExamines the development of new technologies and communication networks. The structure of the marketplace, government policy, and the social impacts of new technologies are discussed. Issues such as globalization, computer security, privacy, and changes in regulations may be covered. Prerequisites: TVR-12100, two level-2 courses in one or more of the following fields: television-radio, psychology, sociology; junior standing.<\/p>\n
\nStudents will identify and analyze current debates and critiques of new technologies, as measured by papers. Students will research and understand one aspect of the Digital Environment thoroughly, as measured by a paper and class presentation. Students will identify and critique different philosophies of technology, as measured by papers.<\/p>\n
