Fall+2009+Book+Discussion+List

Instructions: Using the links to examine the books, choose which book you would like to read and discuss. It is likely this will be due the Monday of the final week of this semester.

One person in your group should sign in to the wiki (you'll have to register first, then it will ask me to let you in, and as soon as I do, you can click "edit this page" at the top and begin typing), add your names to the book listed, and click save.

If you don't have a group, then just sign on and add your name to any group that doesn't have the maximum number of people. Each group needs a minimum of three and a maximum of five.

DO NOT CHOOSE A BOOK YOU'VE ALREADY READ!! You may choose the Randy Pausch book if you've only read/seen one of the two required items. You are welcome to use this book as a project or reading assignment in another class if needed.

On the day of the discussion, you will be handed an basic outline of questions to discuss. If I were preparing for this, I would also prepare a few questions of my own (along with answers) so that the discussion can go on for 45 minutes or so. Closer to the discussion I will give you a rubric for how each of you will be graded.
