I’m afraid I probably won’t post much in-depth today, so here’s just a quick list of some “digital accomplishments”:
- Had a good discussion in my first-year writing course about the “origins” of images online, particularly how Google image search doesn’t mean the image came from Google, but rather from a particular website—and then how you can use Google image search to track down the source of the image.
- Had a wonderful lunch with rhetoric colleagues from across the university. An analog lunch.
- Led a good discussion in Social Media and Society about remediation, media ideologies, and idioms of practice related to Gershon’s book The Breakup 2.0.
- Updated my MacBook Air’s OS because that was more preferable to working on Desire2Learn.
- Worked on my summer course on D2L, where I uploaded html pages, worked on some links, and finished the gradebook. More to do on that tonight.
- Complained about the snirt that’s still here in Wisconsin.
