> As Georgetown University's peer-reviewed journal of Communication,
> Culture and Technology (CCT), gnovis strives to foster innovative
> research and design, reward scholarly excellence, and celebrate the
> exploration and understanding of technology as it both shapes and is
> shaped by political, economic, social, and cultural actors and
> institutions. gnovis seeks to place disciplinary paradigms into
> dialogue with each other, illuminating the clarity and contradictions
> therein and the manner in which they are codified into our social  
> fabric.

> Our Work:
>
> The Peer Review: gnovis is a peer-reviewed journal that employs a
> double-blind review process. Professors may nominate students' works
> that in order to recognize their academic achievement, intellectual
> rigor, and innovative transdisciplinary approach to scholarship.
> These articles are published as "Feature Articles".
>
> gnovis' Distinguished Peer Reviewers are those CCT students who have
> demonstrated exceptional academic achievement and forward-thinking
> scholarly work in their own studies, are able to recognize and
> discriminate exceptional scholarship produced by their peers, and
> show a commitment to furthering the values of CCT-minded scholarship
> in both academic and professional endeavors.
>
> The Multimedia Features: Interdisciplinary thought and research does
> not occur in a vacuum, nor is it strictly articulated through
> academic papers. As an online journal, we have the opportunity to
> explore the dialogue between disciplines in new and creative ways.
> gnovis Multimedia Feature Articles seek to move classroom learning
> off the page, to explore CCT-related themes as they occur in other
> academic and professional settings. Feature Articles recognize CCT
> student’s ability to extend classroom learning beyond the CCT
> boundaries by molding cutting-edge scholarship with multi-media
> journalism. Feature Article Writers participating in this initiative
> submitted proposals for consideration articulating their unique
> approach to developing these themes. Those chosen sought to reach
> beyond the format of a traditional printed scholarly journal and
> proposed a creative use of text and technology to articulate their  
> theme.
