There have been some great suggestions on this thread! I wanted to add that, if you’re willing to do some digging, here is a collection of tech ethics syllabi, many of which have assignments and exercises listed with their course materials, and law/privacy are pretty common topics: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1jWIrA8jHz5fYAW4h9CkUD8gKS5V98PDJDymR... — Casey Fiesler Assistant Professor Department of Information Science University of Colorado Boulder On Aug 9, 2018, at 7:55 AM, Sarah Ann Oates <soates@umd.edu<mailto:soates@umd.edu>> wrote: We have students break into groups, find, and then read the privacy policies on various platforms such as FB, Twitter, Reddit, etc. Part of the fun is that they can be hard to find, which angers the students and then makes them pretty critical :) They then grade the privacy policies with a letter grade (which they enjoy, because they like getting to give someone else a grade). It led to a really good discussion in class as each group justified their 'grade'. This was a basic 'core' requirement class with a wide range of abilities but what really amazed me was how fast they did it -- it took them about 20 minutes to find, read, analyze, and grade the main points of a privacy policy (just as a warning because I often underestimate the analytical speed of the Millennial student ... ) Sarah Sarah Oates Professor and Senior Scholar Philip Merrill College of Journalism University of Maryland College Park, MD 20457 Email: soates@umd.edu<mailto:soates@umd.edu> Phone: 301 405 4510 http://secure-web.cisco.com/10409w7aWR5BlxFCZqzVkhFy2cZ0QgfWz4Vr3gXH0HS4jVxn...

Ideally, they should work in small groups to carry out the exercise. Any topic that fits within the broader scope of regal and/or privacy issues related to social media use/data will work. Normally, I would ask them to review a social media platform's privacy policy and report back on how they use your data. But this time I intend to do something different. Any suggestions, please?
