Filed Under: New Media New English: The RAW Interview by s2ceball — Comments Off on Chapter Summary

This epilogue is an interview between “Carter Raney” and four English 101 instructors. Raney finds that English classes have changed drastically since the time he was enrolled in college, due mostly to the integration of different technologies in the classroom and innovative teaching pedagogies which allow students and teachers to interact with the technology to create multimodal documents.

“Mac G5s sit on every desk. Headphones are required materials. Classes are small.
Budgets are high. Laws are broken. Everyone’s a rock star. And no one is writing. Are
these teachers cool enough to pass their own classes? RAW’s Carter Raney goes to college and enrolls in English 101.”
