Digital copies of our service-learning papers (below) available upon request. It is some of the published output of an NSF-funded service-learning project from 2002-2004 that was trying to get seniors on the Internet to enhance their citizenship. This was a very challenging project. We also tried and failed working with at-risk youth. We explored and failed to figure out how we could help people with severe physical disabilities. Some of you young folks entirely missed the hard part of "getting online" for those who "ran wires into computer labs" or set up ad hoc wireless networks with flip phones. Looking at the cycle from "Dean TV" in 2004 through Putin's Facebook in 2016, one can only dwell on the many unintended consequences of moving democracy online. The "break it first" model, to be sure...
