Question your sources
Technology is neither good nor bad.
Nor is it neutral.
What’s outside the frame?
Context
Design agendas
Digital identityOnline identity
namespace collision
Are we sure X is Y?
I, Y, consist of A, B and C.
Usefulness can be predicted
Just enough to be magical
All sources are created equal
Quantitative judgements are
superior
Be your tools
Be your categories
Be your wallet
Life Beats
The web never forgets
It cannot make that judgement
we are the problem
don’t assume learners have special
knowledge
just because she jumped off a cliff..
online and digital identities are
different
digital literacy is more than learning to use a keyboard and mouse
developers don’t have your well-being as a
priority
expect it adapt to you
consider flexibility
remember the biases
we understand how power works offline, but we don’t understand how it works
online
they invent new products, processes, systems and
devices that produce profound socio-cultural transformations
