The course emphasizes personal responsibility, legal ramifications and educational implications. You should plan to meet with me and the TA regularly during our office hours, in class and during conferences. Much of your time will be spent focusing upon analysis and synthesis of ideas in both written and verbal expression. Essentially, you will explore and examine the social opportunities and problems raised by new information technologies. You will not pass the course if you do not complete all the assigned work.
Assignments are due at the beginning of class on the day they are due.
Late papers will not be accepted unless you have made arrangements with me or the TA prior to the due date. Quizzes may not be made up unless there are documented circumstances. Please read the policies before the second class meeting. Keep in mind that academic dishonesty includes such things as cheating, inventing false information or citations, plagiarizing, and helping someone else commit an act of academic dishonesty. Keep in mind there is a distinct difference between balanced collaboration on a project that you are assigned to work on and collaborating on a project where your level of input is less than your peers'.
