robertogrecoStudents are often surprised (and even angered) to learn the degree to which they are digitally redlined, surveilled, and profiled on the web and to find out that educational systems are looking to replicate many of those worst practices in the name of “efficiency,” “engagement,” or “improved outcomes.” Students don’t know any other web—or, for that matter, have any notion of a web that would be different from the one we have now. Many teachers have at least heard about a web that didn’t spy on users, a web that was (theoretically at least) about connecting not through platforms but through interfaces where individuals had a significant amount of choice in saying how the web looked and what was shared. A big part of the teaching that I do is to tell students: “It’s not supposed to be like this” or “It doesn’t have to be like this.”"]]>banjamindoxtdator 2017 landscapes playgrounds georgelakoff markjohnson treborscolz digitalcitizenship internet web online mckenziewark privacy security labor playbor daphnedragona gamification uber work scottmcleod adrianelapointe sarahroberts janruneholmevik vannevabush gregoryulmer francisbacon chrisgilliard pedagogy criticalthinking shoshanazuboff surveillance surveillancecapitalism safiyanoble google googleglass cathyo'neil algorithms data bigdata redlining postcolonialism race racism criticaltheory criticalpedagogy bias safiyaumojanoblehttps://pinboard.in/https://pinboard.in/u:robertogreco/b:a45d469ccd04/
