Blog Intro Entry

I’ve been slo-o-owly moving my way through the New Media track in the PhD in English program but I have already completed all required courses. However, I wasn’t able to enter the dissertation phase last fall due to great upheaval that occurred in the middle of last year (moving from Virginia Beach to New York, moving from 1800 square feet into 800 and all that entails, finding mold in our Virginia Beach house and having to take care of that, trying to prepare the house for sale, finding a new chair for my committee, finding new employment, having to — you get the idea), this led to my asking for a 1-year extension. This meant that I needed to add another course to my program to stay in good standing. As I wished to get to know Dr. Rodrigo and her expertise, I signed up for New Media I (I had already taken II with Kathie Gossett).

My personal goals are to continue learning about how New Media impacts traditional industries such as commerce, entertainment and education. I’m interested in how industries can borrow from one-another in creating best practices for how people relate to each other and content online.

My Zooburst intro is done.

  1. I love the animation table (and knowing that is your history). I learned I could zoom in Zooburst (I wanted to look at one of your pics more closely).
    Course goals?
