T101 Description (Erin Schoemer)

T101 Media Life has actually impacted me personally. I’ve learned a lot about myself and how I use and consume media because of this class. If someone were to ask me what the class is about this is what I would tell them. The class challenges you to explore your own investment in media life by providing numerous examples of how it impacts our society in general. The professor frequently mentions that he doesn’t expect that you agree with him, only that you consider his arguments. The lecture portion always covers a general topic that is further discussed in the discussion sections later in the week. T101 Media Life isn’t really about media at all, but rather they ways in which society has evolved because of media. – Erin Schoemer
