Emerging technological advances have created alarming ethical dilemmas. This class explores questions about the grey areas in ‘progress’, and how technology relates to concepts like hierarchy, economic development, and biopolitics. Some topics to discuss include self-driving cars, rights, GMOs, facial recognition software and cybersecurity. Where should we make or change laws? Who needs to or is allowed to make decisions and regulations?
This class, taught in English, will help students practice using critical thinking skills, being analytical, doing research, arguing an opinion, providing feedback and listening to others.
