This is not something you can be taught. You must learn it. As instructor, I can only guide and assist you. Thus, all of the class activities are designed to help you learn.
I will make intensive use of classroom discussions and analytical writing assignments. You will be given many opportunities to express your positions on various situations where computerization is having an impact on such topics as: the economy and labor markets, work life, public safety, consumer rights, intellectual property, individual privacy, social stratification, democracy, education, gender bias, national security, health, etc.
You will be expected to participate actively in discussions. On any given issues, you may be asked to summarize and criticize reading assignments from the text or articles that you have read for your project papers.
