Talk:PLSC 481: Freedom of Speech Seminar: CyberSpeech

This is a wonderful topic! I do appreciate the link to the 'Policy' page as well. I should caution, however, since the page title references a for-credit official BU course, that official and critical announcements and requirements be placed (officially) on a protected Blackboard wiki or announcement forum, where only those who are registered, and remain registered for the class have access. The wiki pages here are currently viewable by the whole world, and edittable by anyone at BU (registered for the class or not). I have no intention (as the acting wikiczar) to protect individual course pages. It looks like you have a good sense of the cyber-expression world (That's a nice list of resources.), so I'll leave you be. I look forward to the discussion and growth of these pages. Have a great day! --Rhansen 14:38, 17 October 2006 (EDT)

Wikiczar Rhansen, Thank you for the advice. Yes, I plan on using Blackboard as well, particularly for critical announcements. I'm a big fan of Blackboard for large classes, but I hope that this smaller seminar can meld with wikis to create a more hands-on experience. I'll likely duplicate those Bb announcements, if appropriate, on the course wiki as well. I have experience running course wikis and know the dilligence required to make them succeed. So I was absolutely thrilled when I came across the BingWikis. Thanks for the vote of confidence on the list of resources. I have only just begun to get the page in order! --McGovern
