LBSC 671 - Creating Information Infrastructures
Spring 2014 - Section 0101
Schedule


For each week this schedule shows the top-level topics that we plan to cover. The Readings link to the reading list describes the readings that should be completed before each class. The assignment titles are links to the assignment that is due at the beginning of that class. Readings and assignments might rarely change as late as a week before the due date, but if it happens that late I would send around a note by email. The slides link will take you to the Powerpoint slides and other materials that I plan to use in class that week (these will be available by 5 AM on class days), and the video links will take you to the Panopto recording of that class (which may be posted quite a while after the class ends because it is here mostly for use in future semesters; when it works, the Panopto recording becomes available immediately after each class session through ELMS using the Panopto menu item).
