Dear students,
Here is the link in case you needed to review any of the parts of the Second Life machinima documentary we watched in class.:

I look forward to reading your responses.
Also, I realized I should have clarified: activism does not mean leftist or liberal causes, even though that is what we saw in the film. Examples of causes that are centrist or conservative are of course also welcome and provide variety for us to examine. (One thing I've looked into is using technology to spread Christian messages -- in fact I just read that there is a group of people translating the bible into LOLcats!).
QUIZ #2 is graded and almost everyone improved. I will hand them back on Monday if possible.
In case you want to get a head start for class this week and studying for the Final, it will cover the second half of Chapter 10 (on Internet), the Boyd reading, the Jenkins reading (for MONDAY), Chapter 11 on Advertising, and the Lessig reading (for WEDS, on Black board). We also have three great in class screenings. I'll get the lecture notes and videos for this week up on Sunday.
As previously stated, we are no longer doing the PR chapter for this class. Monday=Convergence, Tuesday=Advertising, Wednesday=Copyright and Thursday is your exam.
I will re-send writing assignment grades to those who wrote me. If you haven't received any writing assignment grades by the end of the day, you should email me.
Have a good weekend,
Sarah Wright
