Every effort is made to ensure the accuracy of the information contained in this Columbia College Chicago Catalog; however, the Catalog is not a contract but rather a guide for the convenience of students.

This course invites students to step into the roles of leader, manager, and editor-in-chief, and to practice strategies that effective leaders use for facilitating other authors’ writing. Students will have the opportunity to learn to think strategically about writing as content that can be managed across platforms and digital spaces. Students will also have the opportunity to learn to align content to personal, professional, and organizational goals; to collaborate with other authors; to consider the needs of diverse audiences; and to prepare instructions and guides that shape other authors’ writing. Students will also critique the rise of content management systems and discuss tactics to use to leverage imperfect technologies and platforms.
