Hi all. Hope that you've all gotten back home safely! I'm going to be teaching an MA-level course on Digital Divide/Inequality next term. Anyone taught this sort of course before and willing to send me a syllabus? I'd appreciate it. And of course I'd be happy to compile some things and send them back to you. Thanks, Katy Pearce
