All Classes
Critiques of Educational Technology

Credit: 4 hours.

Students will critically examine the social, pedagogical, cognitive, and political impact of implementing technology in educational contexts. We will survey various perspectives critical of educational technology in an effort to clarify its actual and potential value. The course will review papers and other works skeptical of educational technology as a whole, as well as research questioning specific initiatives such as mass distribution of computers in schools, data analytics, MOOCs, intelligent tutors, virtual reality, generative AI, etc.

Credit is not given toward graduation for CI 553 and CI 439.
