Throughout the course we will be studying many different media technologies to understand how their inherent characteristics and modes of distribution affect the arguments that are made using them. Students will be immersed in this study through project-based assignments in which they will be using these technologies to make their own arguments."
It appears to be a course about argument in cyberspace. Something like this, using blogs and Flickr to make a point:
