Alexis Dawkins-Maldonado’s Profile

Are you a writer? Do you want to learn more about the publishing industry? If yes, we’ve designed this new course for you! We’re going to explore what it means to edit and publish another person’s work, whether that be a novel that has yet to be published or a book that has been in print for hundreds of years but needs a new audience in the digital age. Students will research the publication history of two books that have been meaningful in their lives and design a publishing project that they would like to develop in the future. Students will also contribute to the shape of the course going forward, helping us build a structure that will allow students to propose and contribute to publications being developed by The University of New Haven Press.

How do we decide what creative works to engage with? How did people discover what they loved before the Internet? How often is an algorithm influencing what we choose to watch, read, or listen to? What is the relationship between recommender systems and human reviewers? Are social media influencers critics?
