Course Requirements in Two Formats

I. Hard Copy Format:

Cass Sunstein, Republic.com

Stephen Schulhofer, The Enemy Within

Robert Ellis Smith, Ben Franklin's Website

Course Reader (available in Lafortune Copy Center )

II. Cyber Format:

You will find all the basic information you need for this course on the WWW Syllabus Home page.  Aside from the books above and your Reader, many of your reading assignments will appear only on this site. We will also use WebCT as a discussion tool. You should consult both sites regularly. I hope to develop an additional discussion forum with students from another university.

Schedule:

For the first half of the semester, we will discuss topics on the WWW Course Syllabus. For the second half, we will work on individual projects and collaborative Web pages.

Grading:

Mid-term paper (15%); Rough Draft of Seminar paper (10%); Final Draft of Seminar Paper (30%); Participation and WebCT Discussions (30%); Joint Web Pages (15%).

I expect everyone to participate actively and enthusiastically at all times, both in class and over the Net.  Classroom performance will be a major part of your grade.  Class attendance is mandatory.  You cannot pass this class unless you attend regularly. You must let me know if you cannot make class at (1-5253) or amcadams@nd.edu. Unless you have a good excuse (which requires my approval), assignments that are turned in late will be docked one-third of a letter grade for every day they are late.
