HUMU 250 Week 1 Discussion 1

HUMU 250 Week 1 Discussion 1 | Assignment Help | Brandman University

WEEK 1 DB

Part A:

Using any kind of mic (phone, app, professional microphone), record a brief (approx. 20 second) introduction to the class. This should just be an audio file, not a video (though if you want to attach a photo, feel free!). Let us hear your personality shine though!

Tell us who you are, why you are at Brandman, and two or three digital technologies you use every day (if you have time, also tell us how you use them).

Please type out the same information in the posting window in case someone doesn't have speakers. Thanks!

Part B:

Nicholas Carr and Clay Shirky view the influence and impact of the Internet in very different ways. Quoting both of this week's videos at least one time, explain who is right and who is wrong (perhaps they are both right or both wrong)--and thoroughly support your claim.

Please make sure to properly cite the quotes. There is information here in Week 1 with the Plagiarism module, in Course Information and in the Writing Help tab if you are

unsure as to how to include in-text citations.

EACH WEEK:

Deadlines: By Thursday at midnight, post a response/reaction to the question posed.  Start your own thread and, title it "Your Name Main Post" so Kim Chester's would say, "Kim Chester Main Post."

Read and reflect on your colleagues’ responses.

By Sunday at midnight, click "reply" to at least two of your colleagues’ postings in one or more of the following suggested ways:

·         Ask a probing or clarifying question.

·         Share an insight from having read your colleague’s posting.

·         Offer, support, or challenge a position

·         Validate an idea with your own experience.

·         Expand on your colleague’s posting.

·         Ask for evidence that supports the posting.

Main posts and responses should include references as appropriate.
