Additional readings will be continued in Fall 2005 as well as
cumulative learning artifacts and literature review. The July
reading schedule is subject to change if the ELAN 7700 does indeed
make; if the class makes, I will push the July readings to Fall 2005 so
that I may participate in the book club and complete written reflections
on my experiences in the book club.
