I take a broad view of technology in the course (we talk about blackboards and codices as well as digital tech), and we'll be reading Larry Cuban's <i>Oversold and Underused: Computers in the Classroom</i>, and some of Audrey Watters' writing on edtech. <br></div><div><br></div><div>Anyway, I'd be eager to hear if anyone has other suggestions for pieces that might teach well, including pieces that praise edtech, promise innovation and disruption, or address maintenance problems in education. <br></div><div><br></div><div>Thanks,</div><div>Tom Okie</div><div>Kennesaw State University<br> </div></div>
