Due Dates
for term papers

During this semester, each student in this class is expected to produce:

• an in-class presentation (approx. 20 minutes plus discussion)
• a midterm research paper (1000 to 2000 words in length)
• a final term research paper (2000 to 4000 words in length)

Your in-class presentation should be on the same topic as either your midterm paper or your final paper, but the other paper should be on a different topic. Exceptions to this rule will be granted if sufficient reasons are given. For each paper, students must submit first an outline, then a rough draft, and finally the finished paper.

The in-class presentations by different students must all be on different topics. When deciding what topic to choose for your presentation, consult the schedule of presentations posted on the class web page to find out what topics have already been taken.

See the class web page,

for resources such as citation style guides and links to computer ethics web pages. In case you have trouble deciding on a topic, there is also a list of topics there to stimulate your imagination. But feel free to pick your own topics to suit your areas of interest.
