Writing (in) Cyberspace: Issues, Questions, Concerns



In this assignment you are to explore and analyze one or more topics, issues, problems, concerns raised by our readings and discussions and of interest to you. Your task is to two-fold: first, you will produce a text that details your research, analysis, conclusions. Second, you will present your work to the class (in addition to its web publicaton).

These projects can and should take many forms. Possibilities include a research project involving networked resources, or a multimedia presentation on a topic of your choice. I do not have a specified length (it is tough to assess this on the Web), but the project should be long enough to examine the issue and inform a reader in detail. The topics and content will be up to you, as will printed and Internet research.
 

Each student will demonstrate and discuss his/her project as scheduled. We will present one or two projects each day.
