An especially visible change has been the increase of visual elementsfrom typographic flexibility to the easy use and manipulation of color and images. Another would be in the scenes of writingweb sites, presentation 'slides,' email, online conferencing and coursework, even help files, all reflect nontraditional venues that new media have brought to writing. By one logic, we must reconsider traditional views even of what counts as writing; a database, for example, could be a new form of written work.The authors of Writing New Media bring these ideas and the changes they imply for writing instruction to the audience of rhetoric/composition scholars. Their aim is to expand the college writing teacher's understanding of new media and to help teachers prepare students to write effectively with new media beyond the classroom. Each chapter in the volume includes a lengthy discussion of rhetorical and technological background, and then follows with classroomtested assignments from the authors' own teaching.
