CS 57.11 Social Media, the Internet, and Society Description: Students will be introduced to the landscape of emerging social media within the information society. Using an interdisciplinary approach, students develop a critical understanding of the psychology, history, sociology, politics, and economics of new information technologies and the sociocultural shifts from which they evolved. By focusing on cutting-edge content and events, students study and apply theoretical concepts to real-life issues, such as the impact of technology on society, the relationship between digital devices and identity, the explosion of video content, privacy and surveillance, intellectual property, hacktivism, cybercrime, and more. Using video, audio, web-based, and print materials, students explore the complex and interconnected relationship between emerging social media, technology, and society.
