PROMO: Information Arrangement Course at Simmons

Hi to Web4Lib -- 
Strategic Information Arrangement:  Theory and Techniques is a new CE 
Course  at Simmons College.  It examines  arrangement methods and persuasive 
strategies that help you organize information  to promote your goals.  Included 
is  a unit on the arrangement of names on the Vietnam Veterans Memorial and 
the  Memorial to the Missing of the Somme from WWI.  Both memorials have the 
same goals, but  each has a unique arrangement because of the differences 
in conducting the two  wars.  The course also features  Snoopy, the Rolling 
Stones, and the Burning Man art festival in Nevada to show  you how to 
successfully and persuasively arrange information.     
The course includes weekly PowerPoint slides with entertaining textual  
notes.  There are also optional  readings, weekly online conversations, and an 
arrangement exercise.
