| Omschrijving |
This course introduces the topic of computer-mediated communication, i.e. communication via instant messaging, video-chat, email, social media and virtual reality. Students will be introduced to the central cognitive, linguistic and social issues concerning mediated communication. A main emphasis of the course is how different media affect interaction, in particular how they contrast with spoken face-to-face conversation. Why are some media better suited to certain types of interaction than others? How do different media deal with the problems of miscommunication? Further, this course will introduce the topic of language change, showing how mediated communication gives rise to the emergence and propagation of new linguistic and communicative conventions. |
