Digital Media and Society

/ syllabi /

On this page you will find syllabi to help you use books from the DMS series in the classroom, as well as links to syllabi in digital media from around the world. Many of these provide numerous resources in their own right, containing hyperlinks to readings recommended. If you would like to suggest a syllabus to be included on this page then suggestions are welcomed at digitalmedia@polity.co.uk. You can also check out our del.icio.us page for the most up-to-date listings (this page is updated periodically from there): www.delicious.com/digitalmediaandsociety/syllabi

One place to start if you are hunting for a syllabus on a particular topic is the Syllabi Finder at The Centre for History and New Media at George Mason University: http://chnm.gmu.edu/tools/syllabi/
