Transmediated informative essay

For this assignment, you are asked to construct a transmediated informative essay using readily available online tools on the social media site Tumblr. Specifically, you are asked to research the history and significance of a particular person, development, or moment in new media history and construct a Tumblr page to convey this information. Your essay should include: (1a) at least 750 original words (~ 3 double-spaced pages), (1b) split into at least three independent blocks of text, (1c) supported by at least two credible sources, and (2) interspersed by at least four transmediated components that enliven the essay (e.g., hyperlinks, embedded audio/visual, digital imagery, soundscapes, and so forth). The blocks of original text should meet collegiate writing specifications including APA formatting for direct citations; each post that includes a direct citation should close the post with a formal APA citation.
