Discussion Page updated 7/8/08
The discussion ("HyperNews") pages have a dual purpose:
- Any questions you have about a topic covrered in a particular chapter should be posted there. If you send me questions via e-mail, I will answer them on the discussion page!
- The pages are designed to provide you with a forum to exchange opinions, comment on subjects you find interesting, irritating, difficult, etc. To get you started I have posted one or two questions on each page. If you have questions regarding material covered in class or in the readings, this is the place to ask them! If you have found interesting web sites that relate to the topic covered in a particular chapter - share them with us! I will comment and respond if necessary, but basically, the discussion pages are your pages!!!
- If you have difficulties (or have not tried the discussion page before) practice on the general news page. You can also find help (and a lot more information about Hypernews than you probably care for on the HyperNews home page
