​Don't know where to start? Here's a quick guide to each module that will help you see beyond the sheen of social media and technological change and to start to be able to critically think about the inner workings of new innovations. Easy sauce!

 

• The Clock: Get an introduction to how fast technological change has been occurring since the invention of the printing press to situate yourself within the history of media. Feeling overwhelmed? It's normal!
• ​Da Code: Start thinking about what really goes into the infrastructure of Internet and some of its most popular uses (Google and social media!). How are they shaped and formed (it ain't mortar and bricks!)?
• Captain Tweet: Explore what it means to be a part of a virtual public online by interacting with one of the most popular interfaces for online conversations: Twitter. Who is Captain Tweet and what will he do with YOUR tweets?
• Personal PR: Now that you know more about the implications of participating in conversations online and using popular interfaces, what can you do to maintain your privacy, integrity and clean criminal record?
• ​Privacy Matters: Think "Terms of Service" agreements are boring? Understandable. Take a moment to think about what you've never read... like the mountains of description in a Tolkien novel. Lord of the Rings what!!!
