Determinist Positionson the Philosophy of Technology
1. Uses determinism – all technologies are neutral tools or devices that simply extend human capacities
2. Social determinism – social structures influence who is involved/excluded in technological advancement
3. Technological determinism – all technologies are designed to sustain advantaged populations and hegemonic interests

“Language exists only when it is listened to as well as spoken. The hearer is an indispensable partner. The work of art is completely only as it works in the experience of others than the one who created it.” John Dewey, Art & Education
@acroom
The more you restrict how your students use domains, the more it will reflect you instead of your student.
@acroom
“If there be no self-expression, no free play of individuality, the product will of necessity be but an instance of a species; it will lack the freshness and originality found only in things that are individual on their own account.”John Dewey, Art & Education

“I feel a sense of satisfaction when I can dare to communicate the realness in me to another. Then I feel genuine and spontaneous and alive.”Carl Rogers, Experiences in Communication

Kanuka (2008)
“Without knowing our philosophical orientation, other strategies are used (in choosing technologies). Often swept up by unbridled – but uninformed – enthusiasm by technological advocates, many decisions by educators are based on following the latest trend.”
