Use Latour/Callon problematics. Controversy as a subjet of studies. About web, numerous historical mutations: 2nd World War, year 68, 88-91 web creation & end of the cold war, birth of the web 2.0 Presentation of Latour/Callon theories ? Historical point if view of these mutations. Not all real controversy, more mutations. Do we need Latour ? It seems that it is not always appropriate. (still, it could be an entry on different subjects).
It seems that we agree on doing chronological courses. Economy, historic and informatic points of views.
Courses given by students documented or by professors invited? Subjects proposed in a list chosen by the students for the 2nd trimester. The list would remain open. Does it worth doing it on a whole trimester ? Create a symposium on interdisciplinarity in web sciences ? (In spring, ex of Berder) Wich quantity of history of the web in the course? Invite professors for a course and propose to students to do a presentation a few weeks later ?
Sociological against technological questions.
Thematics ex. :
History of the programming languages. How do we went from hardware to software. Interdisplinary aspects.
What do student would like :
Wich specificity of the web on the historical point of view, why is it different of other objects. Properties, specificities.
How do the uses of people on the web evolves ? Links between information and action. Evolutions of « parcours », how did an informatician worked/works ? Interactions technich/politic Mix between technic and social aspects. Consensus on the need to link the technical and the sociological points of view.
And now, where are we on these questions ? Invite professors for a course and propose to students to do a presentation a few weeks later ?
