Welcome to Communications Technology at EDSS
We are all communicators. We all use a variety of media to communicate. Some we are skilled at, others we are not. Some we master and some master us.
In our digital age the number of communications vehicles is increasing and the rules and practice surrounding their use are often as fluid as their corporate bottom lines. Careers (and relationships) are being significantly impacted by how well we communicate and manage our communications efforts.
In Communications Technology we look at a broad range of communications media and technologies and the underlying principles that guide their creation and effectiveness. We will learn the ways these media can impact and manipulate their audiences, and how to become skillful users and consumers of media. We'll explore communication's rules, guidelines, practices, principles, tricks and tips and discover the math, science, philosophy, history, language and ethics which shape them. We'll build a solid foundation of communication and media literacy that equips students for the dynamic times ahead.
