Hi, folks. Over the summer, I announced that I've become director
of UMBC's new Center for Women and Information Technology. I'm now
pleased to let you know that the Center's web site is up, at
http://www.umbc.edu/cwit/ .
In addition to providing information about the Center, the web site
offers resources related to women and information technology. One
resource likely to be of interest to many WMST-L readers is a new, very
extensive collection of web-based syllabi for women- and gender-related
courses (located in the Curricular Resources section). More than 450
syllabi are arranged by discipline, and syllabi that make substantial
use of Internet resources are singled out. Links are also provided
to four other collections of syllabi, though these for the most part
do not make use of Internet resources.
The web site and the syllabus collection are very much works in
progress. In particular, the marking of syllabi that make use of
Internet resources is likely to be inconsistent, since I started to
do that only after a number of syllabi had already been listed.
Still, I thought it would be more helpful to people to make the
collection available and then smooth out the glitches as I become
aware of them and as time permits.
If you know of other web-based syllabi for women- and gender-related
courses, especially those that make good use of Internet resources,
I'd be most grateful if you'd let me know. I'd also welcome messages
calling my attention to other relevant resources and/or to glitches.
Many thanks.
Joan
