COMM200: Communication Technology
Fall 2001
Making Sense of September 11, 2001
On September 11, 2001, a tragedy of enormous proportion changed our lives.
As a result, the students and I decided to alter the course to focus on
the events surrounding the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center.
Student teams conducted extensive research to address the following questions:
-
How was communication technology involved in the tragedy of September 11th and subsequent events?
-
In what ways does communication technology influence the way we see, comprehend, and remember these current events?
Eleven teams, eleven unique approaches to these questions.
Each link to the left will take you to a different team's page. All pages were made by students with no prior web design experience.
