The special topic I took was 'audio writing - writing with sound'. It was pretty easy and was a nice change of pace to have all of our text be audio (for HW we had to listen to pieces rather than read texts). You are graded on participation so make sure you always enter something into the discussion board every class. There are 2 big assignments that essentially are the same task. You need to write (or audio record) 1500-2000 words on a topic that you get to choose while focusing on background noise/music and purposeful dialogue.

The professor is very sweet and fun and creates a comfortable environment.
