A Word about Presentations ~

For the last several class periods, each student will make an in-class presentation using some type of presentation software (PPT, wiki or blog).

The presentation should include: a health issue or disease of concern or interest to the student; a discussion of how new media technologies are being used to address this issue or disease; and, a review of the peer-review literature which examines the use of e-technologies to address this heatlh issue or disease.

Grades Posted, Come to Class Ready to Wiki!

I've posted all your mid-term essay exam grades and those are available through Blackboard.

Tomorrow in class, we'll spend some time working on getting an entry for every one in the class on the wiki. So, if you have materials (text or images) that you want to post to the wiki, please be sure you have those available tomorrow in class.

See you all soon!

In Class Today, 3/21/06

In the first part of class today, I'd like you to try posting to the wiki and I want you to give some thought to your presentation for the class.

Later, I'll present some of my research about adolescents and the Internet, talk about the survey the class filled out at the beginning of the semester, and then ask each of you to talk a little about your presentation later in the semester.
