Project overview
During July and early August of 2010, groups of 2-4 students will author an article in Citizendium on an "emerging technology" topic (to be pre-approved by the instructors). Students will be expected to include on each article more than one deep web references such as academic (refereed) journals, patent searches, and business surveys. The articles that students will be working on (to be listed below) are not closed to editing by other citizens, but we ask that other authors respect the "ownership" of these articles until after the conclusion of the course. We'd appreciate hearing any comments or suggestions you might have on their respective talk pages, plus the usual correction of grammar or spelling.
- Instructor: Pat Palmer and Dr. Dave Matuszek
- Institution: University of Pennsylvania
- Emails: pgpalmer (at) seas.upenn.edu, and matuszek (at) cis.upenn.edu

Please feel free to customize your user pages any way you wish. A portion of your course grade will be obtained by participating as an author throughout the CZ:Computers_Workgroup. Feel free (but not required) to add a link to this course on your user page using this code: [[CZ:Special_Topics_2010|Emerging Technologies 2010]]

Creating articles
Eduzendium courses need a number of help pages in order to function properly within the Citizendium. This course homepage and all its standard subpages have been set up with the standard names in their standard location: A template article to prefill the students's pages with course-specific formatting and content, a template for the metadata of your course's article, and a note informing other Citizens whether they are allowed to edit your course's pages or not. Please modify these pages as you see fit. If you are done, you can delete the whole section The course mechanics from your course homepage.
See Special_Topics_2008, a previous Eduzendium course similar to this one.
Here is the notice that will appear on articles: CZ:Special_Topics_2010/EZnotice
