Reminder about November 6 readings and assignments

I hope you all enjoyed Monday’s discussion on how to evaluate information sources with my colleague Prof. Ian Beilin. On Wednesday, Prof. Maura Smale will lead a discussion on why to evaluate information and facilitate the evaluation game in class. The research paper outline is due by the beginning of class on Wednesday, November 6 as an email attachment to me. Guidelines for the research paper draft are now on the course site. The research paper draft is due on Monday, November 18.

For Wednesday 11/6, please read Fister, The Devil in the Details and Grimmelman, The Google Dilemma (note Download link on that age). Your blogging assignment is to comment on at least one blog post.
