Without Ed-Tech Criticism… Audrey Watters @audrey watters Scratch AMS 2015
“Why do you hate ed-tech?” “Why do you hate reading
comprehension?”
You have to choose: technological progress or Luddism
“Combating technocentrism involves more than thinking about technology” — Seymour

“The purpose of computer criticism is not to condemn…” —
Seymour Papert
Ed-tech criticism as activism, as tactic — connected to critical
thinking, critical making, critical pedagogy
