[Air-L] virtual ethnography

[scott at scottmacleod.com]

Here's a MIT OCW "Ethnography" course - http://tinyurl.com/dg32zg (also 
http://ocw.mit.edu/OcwWeb/Science--Technology--and-Society/STS-360Ethnograph 
ySpring2003/Calendar/index.htm) - but not on virtual ethnography. 


In a related vein, I'm looking for a "Virtual Ethnography" syllabus from 
MIT, Cal, Stanford, Cambridge, Ivy League schools, the Sorbonne, University 
of Munich, University of Chicago, etc. Are there any syllabi out there that 
you know of on "Virtual Ethnography" vis-a-vis MIT's above?
