Welcome to MEDC 1630 Introduction to Media Literacy

Greetings!

Welcome to MEDC 1630 Introduction to Media Literacy at Webster University. My name is Tyann Cherry and I will be your instructor for the term. In the column to your right you will find two link lists. The first list contains helpful links for Webster University students, among these you will find a link to the ARC (Academic Resource Center) Writing Center. I encourage all students to take advantage of this service during the course of the term. You will find their contact information on the page you are linked to and you can begin to plan your assignments and schedule your time with a writing coach accordingly.

Throughout the term we will use this blog to:

- Facilitate discussion outside of the classroom
- Collaborate and brainstorm topics for your final paper
- Call attention to current examples and events as we read through the text
- Apply terms and examples found in the text to different forms of media
- Foster and environment of healthy critique and exchange

I look forward to working with you all in the coming term.

Best,

-Tyann Cherry
