Please remember to check the blog regularly -- at least once a day. I change posts and assignments, add new posts with required or strongly suggested readings, and ask for feedback.
Your comments about module 1 in the discussions here are very impressive -- and I haven't even seen the time-lines and charts that you are discussing.
I am hesistant to set-up email here, and if you have a question just for me [e.g., you've won the lotto and want to share the funds with your teachers], then send those to my email. If you have a question that others would benefit from reading and answering, then post it to these discussions.
I think it is important that you start sharing your email addresses among yourselves -- that's how you will communicate with most of your colleagues for future publications -- not using webmail.
I am currently co-editing two volumes, and one co-editor lives in Kamloops British Columbia Canada, the other lives in NH and works in Boston. On another project, the co-editor lives in Barcelona and we are working with a Press in Copenhagen. Another project I'm working on the editors live in Milwaukee.
Once you all become professors or professionals, you will no doubt communicate with me online.
Will that change the sensorium, way we communicate, and our identity formation? What would Ong say? What would Drucker say about the graphic design as a medium -- neutral, natural, or no effect on the content?
I'll post this to the blog as well as to the course discussions inside webcourses.
