GVPT333: Information Technology and Society, is an interactive course emphasizing primary research on the effects of technological advances on society.  From the start, the class was broken down into groups that would work together throughout the semester, discovering various IT advances and concerns.  This web page is the culmination of a semester's worth of research on the growing field of E-Commerce and Advertising.  Our project focused on the use of Pop-Up ads as a useful marketing tool and as a privacy concern as well.  Click on the links below to view our work.  Enjoy!!!
