Welcome to DTC 375 Language, Text, and Technology. During this summer 6-week term you will gain an understanding of the electronic medium that underlies all of the work you do as DTC students.

Your textbook is a course packet gleaned from articles collected and put together for us by University Readers. You can order your textbook at:

http://www.universityreaders.com/

The company will provide an instant download of the first couple of readings in order that you have your course materials on time.

There are no other books required of you beside this course packet.
