website for Law in the Court of Public Opinion

Hi,

I just came across this useful piece of information about the course, website for Law in the Court of Public Opinion. “This course is being offered jointly in the Harvard Law School and the Harvard Extension School in the fall semester, 2006.”

“It is a course in persuasive, empathic argument in the Internet space. Throughout the course we will be studying many different media technologies to understand how their inherent characteristics and modes of distribution affect the arguments that are made using them. Students will be immersed in this study through project-based assignments in which they will be using these technologies to make their own arguments. For a good introduction to the class, watch this Video of a discussion with Charlie and Rebecca hosted by the Berkman Center.”

Moreover all the videos and lecture materials are freely available for any internet user.
