This advanced course is designed for majors in the New Media track to survey new developments and applications in converged media. Curriculum is constructive, guiding students to seek out, use, and evaluate developing technologies focused on communicating, entertaining and informing. Students will use established rubrics from COMM 2500 to evaluate new applications and their impacts on existing paradigms such as publishing and broadcasting.

The goal of this course is staying current with that landscape, or at least developing the ability to do so, an imperative competency for graduates in the New Media track.
Students can reach this goal through regular attendance and participation and by these outcomes:
1. Assess implications and trends of new media applications;
