Sitter och filar på en kurs på masternivå (andra året) i medieteknik. Här är mitt förslag till vad studenterna bör lära sig. Skulle vara fint om det lyckades!
- To understand different models for the development/evolution of digital technology
- To grasp some fundamental concepts regarding the cultural relation between humans, robots, information systems and other potential actors in the information ecosystem
- To understand the primary technological driving forces
- To have an informed view of current and near future issues regarding human identity, privacy and ethics, in light of digital culture.
- To know the main building blocks of the digital infrastructure.
- To know some of the main areas where digital products and services cause problems in the space of law and jurisdiction
- To understand some of the changes the job market could undergo, in the light of automatization, outsourcing, crowdsourcing and other trends that are disrupting the concept of work/job.
- To understand the similarities and differences between relations and behaviour online and offline.
Ni får gärna titta på resten av planeringen och tycka till om begrepp och litteratur i kommentarerna nedan.

Om sådant tänkande ingick i mycket av högre utbildning i dagens västerland så funnes det motiverat hopp inför morgondagen.

Tack för värmande ord! Vi börjar med den här kursen och sen jobbar vi oss igenom resten av utbildningsväsendet... :-)
