We will be refining this over the first weeks of class, but from past semesters, projects have included work along the following lines. This semester, we anticipate a more narrow menu of options, focused on gathering data/observing online phenomenon, especially where it intersects with theoretical frameworks we will discuss in class. So, while preliminary, here are some ideas to get you started thinking:
- Explore music payment aggregation schemes
- Compare US broadband policies with that of another country
- Write a case study on a selected online organization
- Study an emerging online media organization (e.g. Spot.us; Transparency Initiative; Reuters-Politico deal)
- Review a nation's Internet regulation policy (e.g. Australia's new Internet filtering policy; website rating systems)
- Track and document an online political campaign
- Monitor the evolution of change.gov after the inauguration
- Evaluate and compare online knowledge aggregators (Mahalo Answers, Yahoo Answers) --Cmac 17:49, 25 January 2010 (UTC)
