In this lively and approachable volume based on his popular blog series,
Martin Weller demonstrates a rich history of innovation and effective
implementation of ed tech across higher education. From Bulletin Board
Systems to blockchain, Weller follows the trajectory of education by
focusing each chapter on a technology, theory, or concept that has
influenced each year since 1994. Calling for both caution and
enthusiasm, Weller advocates for a critical and research-based approach
to new technologies, particularly in light of disinformation, the impact
of social media on politics, and data surveillance trends. A concise and
necessary retrospective, this book will be valuable to educators, ed
tech practitioners, and higher education administrators, as well as
students.
