What’s the point?
This course focuses on what people are doing - or not doing - with this newfound power. We will read about, observe and write about how citizens, community groups and governments are using digital tools and platforms to create "civic media," any media - from graffiti to blogs to Twitter - that helps them address a variety of social issues.
Have an in-depth understanding of how digital media is being
