Writing in a Technological World explores how to think rhetorically, act multimodally, and be sensitive to diverse audiences while writing in technological contexts such as social media, websites, podcasts, and mobile technologies.

Claire Lutkewitte includes a wealth of assignments, activities, and discussion questions to apply theory to practice in the development of writing skills. Featuring real-world examples from professionals who write using a wide range of technologies, each chapter provides practical suggestions for writing for a variety of purposes and a variety of audiences. By looking at technologies of the past to discover how meanings have evolved over time and applying the present technology to current working contexts, readers will be prepared to meet the writing and technological challenges of the future.

This is the ideal text for undergraduate and graduate courses in composition, writing with technologies, and professional/business writing.

Reviews for Writing in a Technological World

This book is wonderful because of its utility: many different courses from across the curriculum can use it to help students better understand how to adjust to the ever-changing writing contexts of the digital age, and it can serve as a trusty resource students can rely on as they progress through their studies. Moe Folk, Professor of Digital Rhetoric, Kutztown University of Pennsylvania This thoughtful and well-paced book offers clear, engaging examples throughout to draw students in and help them better understand the role of digital and non-digital technologies alike in writing. Addressing contemporary topics like social media, copyright, website writing, and more, Lutkewitte's text will be indispensable for today's writing classroom. Stephanie Vie, Professor and Department Chair of Writing and Rhetoric, University of Central Florida
