Comprehensive Exam

This is a take home exam. Please consult the schedule for the dates.

Please suggest questions to be included in the exam below.

You should contribute at least one question, but you can do more if you want.

Questions should be based on the readings you have done for the class.

Questions should be short-essay format only (no True/False, multiple choice, etc). In other words, someone should be able to answer them in a couple of paragraphs, not a single word or phrase.

Try to generate questions that ask us to apply knowledge instead of merely repeating memorized definitions. For instance, instead of asking "What is technological determinism?" you should come up with questions like "Is the saying 'guns don't kill people, people kill people' an example of technological determinism or cultural materialism, and why?"

Do not enter the answer to the question! You may, however, provide some indication of where the answer can be found (chapter or page number).

I will be selecting 5 to 8 questions for the exam, depending on their complexity. Obviously, you won't know which ones I will be selecting, but you can use this page as a study guide!

If I don't like any of the questions or if not enough questions are entered, I will come up with exam questions of my own. They will be brutal!
