In view of the crashing lack of response to my previous
request for information or syllabi for a course on
computational studies in Spanish, perhaps I should
amplify that what I am primarily interested in is
any material on humanities computing courses in
general. I can handle the Spanish part.

Thanks again,

TEACHING SOCIAL AND ETHICAL IMPLICATIONS OF COMPUTING:
A "STARTER KIT"

The Research Center on Computing and Society at Southern
Connecticut State University and Educational Media Resources, Inc.
(a not-for-profit organization specializing in educational
programming) have assembled a "Starter Kit" for teachers who wish
to introduce social and ethical implications of computing into
their computer science or computer engineering classes. The "Kit"
can also help computer science departments fulfill national
accreditation requirements (CSAC/CSAB).

The "Starter Kit" includes three video tapes and two monographs:

VIDEO TAPES: No. 1--Teaching Computing and Human Values (45 min.)
No. 2--What Is Computer Ethics (45 min.)
No. 3--Examples and Cases in Computer Ethics (45 min.)

MONOGRAPHS: No. 1--Teaching Computer Ethics (110 pages)
No. 2--Computing and Social Responsibility:
A Collection of Course Syllabi (142 pages)
