An Ode to the Leading Ladies of Technology, on International Women’s DayKaitlin McAndrews
It is vital today to recognise & celebrate women in tech, taking note of their accomplishments that began over a century ago and continuing today.
Observing the pivotal role that women played in tech history is just one way to help safeguard their place in its future.
This document discusses the field of technoanthropology and its focus on studying technology as a cultural system. It provides context on the development of computer science departments out of ARPA laboratories in the 1960s. It also describes ethnographic research conducted at the School of Computer Science at Carnegie Mellon University in the 1990s. Additionally, it outlines two models of knowledge - the traditional science-technology-industry model and the mission-driven model. The document discusses the development of citizen laboratories like i2cat and Citilab that aim to open innovation to citizens. Finally, it argues that technoanthropology can help build an understanding of innovative social and cultural systems and the potential for "synthetic social sciences".
The document provides a history of the internet and world wide web, including key events and inventions. It discusses the difference between the internet (a network of networks) and the world wide web (a way of accessing information over the internet). Some of the earliest concepts and networks that led to the development of the internet are described, such as JCR Licklider's 1962 "Galactic Network" concept and the ARPANET network. The document also answers several questions related to the history of the internet and important developments.
The document provides a history of the internet and key developments from its early concepts in the 1960s to the late 1990s. It discusses how the original ARPANET grew into the modern Internet based on open architecture networking. Key developments included the Domain Name System to enable scaling, the launch of the first webpage in 1989, and the introduction of popular services and technologies in the 1990s like Mosaic, JavaScript, Google, and Wikipedia.
1. The document discusses the relationship between humans and technology in the context of the Internet of Everything. It notes that while sensors allow the measurability of humans and apps/clouds provide analysis, algorithms need to be treated with care to avoid reducing humans to mere instruments or things.
2. It warns that a lack of care with algorithms can result in "an oops" or something more serious, like technology overriding human control as in a story of a jeep with jammed electronics.
3. The document concludes by arguing that technology should align with long-term societal needs and that real conversation is with humans rather than technology itself.
The document provides a history of the development of the Internet from its origins in the 1960s to the present day. It describes how the Internet began as a project of the US military called ARPANET to create a decentralized network that could withstand attacks. Key developments included the creation of email in 1972, the introduction of TCP/IP in the 1970s which allowed different networks to connect, the launch of the World Wide Web in the early 1990s, and the rise of popular services and technologies like search engines, browsers, social media, and ecommerce in the late 1990s. The document also discusses some of the ongoing issues surrounding the Internet like privacy, security, and the digital divide.
The document provides a history of the development of the Internet. It discusses how the Internet was originally developed by DARPA to share information between universities and research facilities. Key developments included the first messages being passed between computers in 1969, and the development of TCP by Kahn and Cerf in the 1970s. The document also discusses important contributors to the development of the Internet such as Kleinrock, who wrote the first paper on packet switching; Perlman, who developed the spanning tree algorithm; and Berners-Lee, who developed HTML.
Delivered in the Theater of the Peabody Opera House in St. Louis on September 19, 2013 as part of Strangeloop.
Also delivered at TechColumbus as the plenary talk for Columbus Code Camp in Columbus, OH on October 11, 2014.

1. The document discusses many quotes from experts over time who failed to anticipate new technologies and industries that later emerged as important.
2. Examples include experts dismissing the potential of radio, television, computers in the home, the internet, mobile phones and more.
3. The document suggests that experts are often unable to foresee disruptive new technologies and industries, and that significant innovations regularly exceed expectations of what is possible.
The internet was created through contributions from many individuals, though some key figures include Leonard Kleinrock, whose 1961 paper initially proposed the concept, and J.C.R. Licklider who envisioned a "galactic network" as director of the Information Processing Techniques Office. The Advanced Research Projects Agency Network (ARPANET) developed in 1966 was the first wide area network linking universities and research centers using packet switching, and marked the beginning of what we know as the internet today. Important early developments included the first internet use in 1974 and establishment of protocols that allowed the internet to function even if parts were destroyed.

This document discusses issues of equity and inclusion related to educational technology. It explores how technologies like Pokemon Go were not created with diversity and inclusion in mind, resulting in certain neighborhoods and groups being left out. It also looks at the lack of diversity historically and currently in the technology field. To achieve equity, the document argues we must ensure all students can access and develop tech skills, and that the unique needs of all students are considered in classroom tools. Educational technology will only fulfill its potential if developed and implemented through an equity lens.
The document discusses the origins and early development of the internet. It describes how Leonard Kleinrock conceived of digital network communication in 1961 and wrote the first paper on this topic. In 1962, J.C.R. Licklider became director of the Information Processing Technology Office (IPTO) and promoted the idea of an intergalactic network. Robert Taylor also helped develop the concept of ARPANET, one of the earliest computer networks. Key figures like Kleinrock, Licklider, Taylor, and others laid the foundations for the modern internet through their pioneering work developing early computer networks.

Humanity Vs Technology - A "Quote-Unquote" Debate #edcmoocRajiv Bajaj
This is my digital artefact submission for the E-Learning & Digital Cultures MOOC (EDCMOOC 3 : Nov-Dec14). The quotes I have used in the presentation bring out beautifully the debate on technology vs humanity and utopia vs dystopia - a debate that is as old as recorded history itself.
as mankind has evolved, so has technology. From the day and age of the wheel to the age of space travel, we certainly have come a long way. Yet, the viewpoints on technology differ. The dystopian view would be that technology tends to make slaves of us humans, rather than being masters of the technology created by us. The opposite view would perhaps be that we owe our very progress and existence to technology. Are either of the views wrong ?
Not in my view. Both are equally valid. Too much of a good thing can be bad. But then, when we speak of humanity falling prey to technology, we really cannot generalise. In my view, technology is there to make life simpler and more advanced. It all depends on how we use it. Becoming a slave to technology is also a choice, as is using it judiciously. That's my view, and you, the reader, are welcome to yours. Neither of us would be wrong. The debates on Humanity vs technology have always been there and will continue to rage long after you and I are gone.
These quotes, however, bring out the essence of the debate, and I will let the slides speak for themselves.
1) Social machines are hybrid systems of people and technology that allow for democratization and disintermediation by empowering citizens at scale.
2) They are studied as ecosystems of living, hybrid organisms where the successes and failures of instances inform the design of successors.
3) Stories and narrative play an important role in social machines by facilitating sociality, sustainability, and emergence through collaborative authorship and mixed authority.
