Welcome to the CCIT 300 Lab 1 Blog

Welcome to the Lab 1 blog for Critical Analysis of Media, a course in Communication, Culture and Information Technology, a joint program offered by University of Toronto-Mississauga and Sheridan College.

This course is designed to provide students the opportunity to engage issues of critical analysis of media, framed here as analyzing media forms within larger social, economic, cultural, environmental and political contexts.

This collaboratively written, student-led blog encourages discussion and debate among students on issues pertaining to the course. For the next few weeks, student groups will summarize and analyze texts of their own choosing and facilitate discussion and debate. Students will also shortly be posting their plans for group projects in critical analysis.

If you're reading this from outside CCIT 300, welcome. You are invited to participate in the discussion and share ideas of interest with students here. We simply ask that your participation remain civil - we reserve the right to edit or eliminate comments that are not constructive or overtly hostile.
