3* identify a client;* identify the stakeholders and their interests;* identify and analyze the relevant social, economic, and/or legal factors;* identify the key ethical and social issues;* identify and analyze the available options; and* propose and defend a resolution for your client.As described in more detail in the Appendix, each group will make two presentationson their project to the entire class, one in the form of a progress report and the other at theend of the term. I will also meet with each group three times over the course of the semesterto review your progress. The final deliverable is the oral report to the class plus a “talkingdocument.”I realize that you are busy with many other commitments, and moreover, classprojects are difficult because of their team coordination requirements. We will therefore usesome class time alleviate those pressures. However, I assume I will also need to meet outsideclass time with your team, during weekdays, evenings, or weekends as a function of ourvarious schedule constraints.Topic memosOver the course of the semester, you will need to submit a total of 4 topic memos.Each memo will present your analysis of the case or sets of readings assigned for a specificclass session. You can choose any 4 of the class sessions to fit your interests and schedule.The memos will be about 3-5 pages single-spaced. They should answer the Key Questionsspecified in the Session-by-session description below. They are due at the start of class; youcan email me ahead of time or give it to me at the start of the session. I cannot accept lateassignments.Class attendance and participation Students are expected to attend class regularly. Class attendance will be part of the classparticipation evaluation, so absences will be penalized. If you are absent for a class, you can reduce by 50% the impact on your participationgrade by preparing an extra topic memo for the materials under discussion that day, so longas I receive it within 24 hours of the end of class. Since during class I may call on students at any time, please avoid embarrassment bytelling me before class if you are not prepared. If you are uncomfortable with class participation, please let me know at the beginning ofterm and I will work with you to help you overcome this barrier.GradingThe project will account for the greater part of the course grade. The project grade willbe a group grade, adjusted up or down as a function of team members’ peer evaluations (seeAppendix).Project 57%Individual class participation 15%Topic memos (4 x 7%) 28%Total 100%Classroom etiquetteAn atmosphere of mutual respect is in order.
