Summer online course examines media history via Web 2.0

Did you know …

The origins of social media can be traced to 1690 (at least)?

The media strategies of the Tea Party and moveon.org aren’t so different from those used by Federalists and Republicans in the late 18th century?

That the first medium touted as “killing print” wasn’t the Internet, or television, or radio?

Join us in June as we use Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and more traditional methods to explore these questions and many more in COM230, Media History, Media Today, online.

Visit OnTrack starting Wednesday, April 11 to add the course. Contact hmakemson@elon.edu for more information.
