Forum 3: Conformity and Knowledge in the Mechanical Era
Presenters: Anchor your presentation in a deeper exploration of ideas examined in at least one essay from Writing Material that are not part of the required reading. Demonstrate your ability to use what you have learned so far to defend a non-obvious position on an issue that will teach something of value to the class. Draw the attention of the class to particular passages in WM that are not on the required reading list.
Suggestions from WM: Douglas, Malcolm X, Borges, Baker, Porter, Twain; also, another appropriate passage is McLuhan 265-279.
Possible case study: "The Defense of Fort McHenry"

Dr. Jerz, can you give me/us a defined subject area on these presentations? I'm sort of confused on this. Can the topic be on the digital age?
Never mind. I found something to do it on. I am presenting on Jay David Bolster, the different versions of text (meaning)
"I preferred to keep my computer chaste and self-contained, aloof from all potential communicants. (Lesser, "The Conversion," Writing Material 227)"
