Digital Divides
Is Google racist? Is Wikipedia sexist? In this course, we will critically reflect on the digital tools and platforms that mediate so much of our daily lives. More specifically, we will explore how digital technologies can reproduce and challenge conditions of racial, class, and gender inequality. Together, we will consider the ethics and politics of topics such as digital redlining, surveillance, privacy, education technologies, algorithms, and other topics selected by students. Rather than traditional papers, assignments will likely include blogging, an analysis of digital tools and projects, a Wikipedia edit-a-thon, and a creative final project. Note: this course emphasizes collaboration, experimentation, and student-centered learning; students are expected to help shape the content, methods, and means by which their learning will be assessed. It is also perfect for beginners; no advanced knowledge of digital technologies is necessary.
