The last class meeting will be the first hour of the scheduled final exam time. Open only to CSE undergraduate majors. While this course deals with social and ethical issues facing computing professionals, it is loosely structured as far as the specific material to be covered is concerned. Student presentations are a major component of the course, both in terms of content and student effort. The topics chosen for the reports will determine much of the specific topical material of the course.
Regular attendance is required.
Students with three or more unexcused absences will receive a grade of unsatisfactory. Absence will be excused only for documented circumstances beyond the student's control. Beyond the attendance requirement, each student must participate in class discussions, complete written assignments, and make presentations as assigned. Each student will be responsible for an individual oral presentation and written report. Each talk should last 15 minutes, including 5 minutes for questions and discussion.
