The online component of SUM 400 develops students’ digital and information literacy as they work through online modules. Modules cover the mechanics of using digital and web-based software, organizing information, learning and reviewing copyright laws, and peer review. The in-person faculty-led sections engage students across majors in discussion with one another as students reflect on their experiences and accomplishments, consider how to select artifacts to share, and decide how to tell the story of their own Agnes Scott journey.
