Teaching Machines and Turing Machines: The History of the Future
of Labor and Learning Audrey Watters - @audreywatters Digital Pedagogy Lab 2015
“Books will soon be obsolete in schools” — Thomas Edison
(1913)
“One cannot understand the history of education in the US
in the twentieth century unless one realizes that Edward Thorndike won and John Dewey lost” — Ellen Lagemann (1989)
“In 50 years, there will only be 10 institutions in
the world delivering higher education…” — Sebastian Thrun (2012)
Education should run like a machine.
Whose labor is saved by labor-saving machines?
“Any teacher that can be replaced by machine should be”
— Arthur C. Clarke (1980)
“There must be an ‘industrial revolution’ in education” — Sidney
Pressey (1933)
“There’s no reason why the schoolroom should be any less
mechanized than, for example, the kitchen” — BF Skinner (1956)
“Machines will be capable within twenty years of doing any
work a man can do” — Herbert Simon (1956)
“Before the end of this century, 70% of today’s occupations
will be … replaced by automation” — Kevin Kelly (2012)
Robots “make great university professors” — R.U.R. (1920)
What happens to our humanity amid a society of machines?
The casualization of labor, the feminization of labor, and the
rise of robots…
Teaching labor is affective labor
What happens when we automate care?
The question is not “can a machine think?” but “can
a machine fool someone into thinking it’s a woman”
“In five years, the classroom will learn you” — IBM
Do we care that machines do not care for students?
Do we care for students?
With the rise of machines, we are working more… not
less…
What happens (to labor and learning) when we convince ourselves
the machines care?
