#Science fiction stories often have to deliver a lot of information to the reader, but don't want to deliver it in a tedious way (i.e. as a dry lecture). Describe and illustrate the techniques used to do this in four of the assigned readings.
#Is "Helen O'Loy" a sexist story? Be sure to explain any terms you might use, especially the term "sexist". (Jamie Stratton, Jeff Jewitt, Geoff Bowes)
#Wiki madness! In lieu of a formal essay, I will allow some people to put together wiki pages on some of the assigned readings. See me for more details. Stories eligible for this include "Helen O'Loy", "It's a Good Life", "The Cold Equations" "I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream" or "Aye, and Gomorrah". (Chris Baynton, Mark Salvador)
