Self and Ethos: Your Personal 431 Brand

This assignment invites you to use your available means to draft and compose a personal brand for your 431 Commonplace Blog.  Using the Selfie photo essay, think through the literacies, skills, and experiences – that unique constellation of contexts that sets you apart from your colleagues – and imagine how you can communicate it using visual and textual elements.  If you have experience in Adobe, begin drafting in Ai or Photoshop.  If you can make something in Google Drawings, try that.  Use a pencil and paper and crayons if you like!  You can always photograph material art and upload it as an avatar.

The purpose of this particular assignment is to explore how a rhetor can use visual and verbal elements to create a static representation of a dynamic and complex self.  Focus your design on communicating relevant digital experience and your relationship to the course goals.  Essentially, your ethos.
