Week 7, June 11

1) Prep for and take final essay exam
While understanding Postman's overall thesis is important, final essay exam questions will be drawn from chapters 9-11. There may be a bit of niche theory thrown in as well. You can bring your Niche Theory Glossary with you, but not your Postman book. Just bring a pen and your Niche Theory Glossary you turned in. If you haven't RSVP'd for one of the three exam time (seen below) please do so immediately. The exam will take about 45 minutes.

NOTE: A couple of you have asked if you can bring your computer to take your final on -- and then email me the Word file. The answer is YES!

2) Continue writing and posting your final project
I have heard from and given feedback to about half of you. If you're not in that group then you should get started and get some feedback from me right away on a couple of them. FINAL PROJECT DEADLINE: Email me your blog URL by Midnight June 21.

3) 10 pts Extra Credit for doing teacher evaluations
Complete class/teacher evaluations via Route Y and get 10 pts extra credit. Hooray!

4) Missing Assignments?
Get caught up on any missing assignments you may have. Finish and email them to me.

No. 10: Electronic Paper

This is just an example in form, not specific content (cause a few of you might even want to use this one). But here you would tell me what E-paper is, a little bit about how it was developed, and what it does. Writing should be in your own words and not just copied and pasted from Wikipedia. You then would move on to tell about what implications that this technology, device or service will have on society in general or on your specific industry. (Thus, some of these can be general and some can be very specific to your industry.) You might then go on to comment on how your reading of Technopoly informs or doesn’t inform your opinion of this. In lieu of that you could also talk about the implications of niche theory? How would this compete with real paper within the framework of niche theory. Finally, give advice to your imaginary employer about this technology, if applicable. All in 150 words. Be sure and credit any photos you use like this: (Photo courtesy E-paper Corp.)
