FACS 50 - Syllabus Materials: Each student needs an Internet account and access to a machine with a Web browser. Basic e-mail, netiquette, and file management skills are helpful. In addition to this page, there will be a lesson provided in WebCT and we will discuss netiquette throughout the semester, also there is a separate syllabus page on specific technology suggestions. For the in-class section only: To make your poster you will need to purchase craft material. It is up to you how much you want to invest in this project. I recommend quality materials so that you can use your poster to display your work in a job, internship, conference, or other context. You can use cheap, disposable material and still earn full credit. Texts (Required for both class formats): Cherlin, A. (1999). Public and Private Families: An Introduction.
