In this course student explore the impact of 21st-century developments on the communications landscape. In particular, student considers how the web, mobile communication and social media have altered not only the way we communicate but also the ethical controversies surrounding digital communication. Such ethical issues include: privacy; human relationships; conflict and harassment online; copyright and piracy; and the power of new media corporations.
But student do not restrict their attention only to the present, student also look forward to developments in technologies such as artificial intelligence, augmented and virtual reality, wearable computing and smart cities. Student explores the likely impact of such developments on the nature and ethics of communication in the future.
This course introduces students to basic concepts and methods in calculus. Topics covered include: functions, limits, derivatives, chain rule, implicit differentiation, rates of change, maxima and minima, integration, integration by substitution, integration by parts, exponential and logarithm functions, partial derivatives, classification of stationary points, Lagrange multiplier method, differential equations, separable equations.

This course provides the basic knowledge of artificial intelligence and related mathematics. To be general and detailed, the topics include searching, heurisitc searching, simulated annealing, gradient method, computational intelligence, decision trees, naive bayes, k nearest neighorhood, linear models, support vector machine, deep learning components. Given the students are without math foundation, we provide the prerequities in the first class, while in the final class, the students shall finish one project and present this project in class.
