# Politics of Encryption: Snowden, Surveillance, and the Fourth
Amendment
“In 2013 Edward Snowden disclosed the existence and extent of
world-wide government surveillance, leading to important debates about
encryption, surveillance, and control. This course uses the implications
of Snowden's revelations as a basis for exploring the politics of
encryption. Topics include encryption and secure communications, the use
of encryption by terrorists and criminals, United States and
international laws concerning encryption, and the clash between
businesses like Apple and U.S. intelligence agencies.”

“This course explores concepts, production, design, publications,
strategies and practical applications of interactive media. The course

strategies for addressing and resolving both basic and complex issues
associated with interactive media. Case studies and readings will be
introduced to examine a range of interactive media topics including
education and journalism, social media marketing, collaboration and
secure communications, legal issues of free speech and so-called

# Technology for Managers: Tools and Strategies
“This course is designed for managers and others involved in making
business decisions involving technology. Students are expected to know

Instead, we will discuss a range of issues focusing around modern
technologies used by businesses around the world. Topics include
networking, secure communications, open source software, mobility,
e-commerce and payment systems, computer security, Web site usability,
wireless, productivity tools, and more.”

Web development: Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), which allow developers to
set the formatting and positioning of objects in webpages in a
standards-based and robust way. We will cover topics such as CSS
selectors, media-specific styles, animation, navigation, layouts,
lightboxes, and lots and lots of Responsive Web Design via Bootstrap and
other frameworks.”
