USENET Discussion Groups in Political Science Courses.
Bailey, Martha
PS: Political Science and Politics, v28 n4 p721-22 Dec 1995
Considers the applications and limitations of supplementing political science instruction with USENET discussion groups. Maintains that the engaging and topical nature of the discussion groups can enhance traditional course materials. Notes, however, that USENET comments often are not indicative of the general public. Briefly discusses reference and citation issues. (MJP)
