Due to unforeseen circumstances, the Lethbridge College campus has been evacuated. The campus will be closed for the remainder of the day. Everyone is asked to avoid campus until further notice. Updates will be posted to the Lethbridge College website.

Today’s class writing challenge: two-sentence horror stories. The highlight? Playing a snippet from the Friday the 13th soundtrack after each student read them. #dcm@LethCollege
@JessL Adaptive storytelling opportunities in VR could drastically change story structures, integrating users with characters instead of passively watching the scene unfold. User gestures in VR could advance stories down different arcs, gamifying storytelling. #comm555
@Devin_Heroux@hodgsonkr@LethCampusMedia Thanks so much for inspiring the crew! You shared some great advice which will certainly push them to excel through their final week of classes, assignments and projects!
@suethomas Your writings make me think of my kids & their previous interest in the 3D world generation of Minecraft. Do you think the Minecraft generation will drastically affect how we interact with digital and physical environments as they age & innovate as adults? #NMN@JessL
Looking forward to welcoming Grant Bastedo from @Taktcomm into my class today! What a great opportunity for the students to learn about communicating during crisis #crisisready#humboldtstrong
Module 8 of #NMN#comm555 - what I've learned: The online life of a protest movement can elongate its recognition, images and videos serve as “injustice symbols” (Olesen, 2015) and I already use many analytic activism techniques before creating my own online narratives. @JessL
Truthfully, I don’t post a lot of #selfies. I worry I will be viewed as narcissistic. But Katrin Tiidenberg suggests selfie shaming is a form of control. Women and minorities are particularly vulnerable #nmn@jessl
Creators of #selfies can choose which role to perform, showing their “front stage” or “back stage” self (Moroni). Here, I want to be known as Cherri, rollerskating instructor. There are many in the rollerskating community who don’t know my real name. @JessL#nmn
I've created a Pinterest board that explores selfie culture in women 40+. Have a resource that's a must-add for my research? Send me a Tweet! #NMN@JessL https://t.co/Zxau3D4GWY
#NMN - Twitter fiction, part II. Stumbled on this article highlighting an account that uses hypertext techniques for the audience to choose their own literary path. Unfortunately, the account is no longer active #mact#comm555
