POTSDAM -- Clarkson University professor of communication and media Johndan Johnson-Eilola has written a new textbook for first-year composition students on adapting writing for new technology, according to the school.

The textbook, "Changing Writing," published by Macmillan Education, outlines four concepts that students need to take into consideration for responding to and creating change with their own writing: purpose, audience, context and text.

Johnson-Eilola said these concepts help students develop their communication strategies for various audiences and scenarios, Clarkson said.
