For the first step in my inquiry project, I wanted to dive deeper into a field I’ve always been curious about: content creation. I wanted to focus specifically on digital creators (bloggers, Youtubers, etc.) who have virtually created careers and full fledged careers on the content they create online. To begin, I chose Steinar Ellingsen’s article, “Seismic Shifts: Platforms, Content Creators, and Spreadable Media.”

b. One article by Dr. John A. McArthur. Composing Podcasts: Engaging Digital Natives in the Communication Classroom.
c. One article by Dr. Leanne Pupchek. A Review of: “Carolyn Ellis, Revision: Autoethnographic Reflections on Life and Work.”.
