Hi class,
First, we will have a Library Research Session on Monday, November 2.
Second, because of this Library Session, we will have to push the peer review date to Wednesday.
Third, we will discuss this extra credit assignment on Wednesday, but I wanted to post it today.
Background: My colleagues in Chicago, Montreal, and Toronto have a project called Techno-Trash that involves some critical thinking and writing on the topic of digital humanities and the problems of the digital world, and so I thought that we might have some discussions about the problem of E-Waste.
If you submit a story to Techno-Trash, I will give you extra credit in the form of one journal credit. We will have time during the next two weeks to work on this in our Lab section.

Cheers,
Prof. Scanlan
