Today we discussed access to information — personal and institutional. Slides from today are available here.
On Monday, October 1, we’ll discuss privacy. Please read two articles:
Marshall, P. Online privacy. CQ Researcher, 19, 933-956.
boyd, d. (2008). Facebook’s Privacy Trainwreck. Convergence: The International Journal of Research into New Media Technologies 14:1, 13-20. Write one reading response blog post. Help accessing articles from the library’s subscription databases is available here.
I forgot to mention an important event taking place tomorrow: NYC Votes! youth voter registration jam will be held tomorrow at 3 pm at Lehman College
, 250 Bedford Park Blvd. West in the Bronx. Stop by if you’re in the area. Extra credit if you take a picture of yourself with Rosario Dawson at the event and post it to the course site!
Today I distributed guidelines for the research proposal in class. Get in touch by email or come by my office hours if you have questions about the research proposal, due October 24.
