Deep dialogue, hard questions and genuine interactivity are fundamental to the success and mode of iLaw. Participants will be invited to engage with sessions in diverse ways throughout the program—from the wiki to the question tool, open Q&A, structured interposals, open space and invited conversation.
=="Discussion" Pages on the Wiki==


These participants will help us to embed uncertainty and dynamic interplay in the sessions, and help to create genuine opportunities to challenge and test ideas.
Each page on the iLaw wiki contains a "Discussion" page (or talk page).  Registered users are permitted to add and edit text to these pages.  The discussion pages will be used as Sign-up sheets for events and as pages for general discussion.  We encourage all participants to add questions, links to news articles, general comments, or discuss topics with one another!


They will:
For questions related to editing or using the iLaw wiki email [mailto:dobrien@cyber.law.harvard.edu| David O'Brien], or consult the [http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Contents MediaWiki Handbook].
* Choose a session of interest, along with up to 5 other students (sign up is available on a google doc that can be linked to from the wiki).  
* During the session, you and your team will take charge of the question tool, monitor backchannels and help identify key questions and priority issues. You will help the session leader to integrate them into the Q&A periods and other parts of the discussion. You may also document some questions that might be useful during the final “Future of the Internet” session on Friday.


==Option B, Audio/Video Output==
[[Image:Discussion_tab.png|border|frame|left|Click on the "Discussion" tab]]
For students with some knowledge/experience with audio/video production, we would be happy to have you record some portion of the proceedings (including interviews with key commentators, session leads and other contributors) and create a multi-media output. This might be a record of the program overall, a deeper dive into a certain topic, etc. Berkman staff may provide some (modest) production support. All final work products are due by the Friday, October 7th.


==Option C. Final Presentation: Lightning Talk, Provocation, Response Statement==
[[Image:Edit_tab.png|border|frame|left|Click on the "Edit" tab]]


2-3:30 PM on Friday afternoon,is allotted for student and participant presentations. Audience members who sign up will have 5-10 minutes to provide substantive reflections on the iLaw sessions and the program overall, or offer central issues for the faculty to answer/consider during the “Future of the Internet” discussion. They might also provide a deeper dive into a particular module or interesting case for further study, etc. The focus here would be on developing a short and creative presentation or statement, to be followed by brief and lightly moderated Q&A with the broader audience.

==Option D. Written Output: Post-iLaw Reflections==
==Driving Questions on the Wiki==


In the wake of the program, and in particular, in light of the “Future of the Internet session,” you will provide a reaction statement or op-ed style piece--no longer than 900 words—that examines some of the hard problems at the core of the developing online space. You might choose to reflect on the evolution of traditional concepts such as privacy, security, and liberty, and their evolution in the online space, or to consider emerging issues that may confirm or challenge some of the core themes that were touched on in our discussion. You could also make the case for other themes, issues, or hard questions that require more attention in future iLaws. The best pieces will be posted to the iLaw wiki.  All final work products are due by the Friday, October 7th.
Faculty members have shared a number of [[Program_Schedule#Driving_Questions_from_Faculty|driving questions]] that reflect fundamental inquiries to consider during the iLaw 2011 Program.  All participants are invited to share their own [[Program_Schedule#Driving_Questions_from_Participants_and_Students|driving questions]].
