Introduce your theory - what is Actor Network Theory (A.N.T), define key terms and give 2-3 reasons why it is suitable for studying computing.
Story 1 - identify your actants, and categorise their scale, i.e. digital, software, hardware, human, cultural, structural
Story 1 - describe how some of these actants are acting on each other (the push/pull of actants)
Story 1 - how can the computer system described in the story be seen to enhance management (of self, of a business etc.)?
Story 2 - identify your actants, and categorise their scale, i.e. digital, software, hardware, human, cultural, structural
Story 2 - describe how some of these actants are acting on each other (the push/pull of actants)
Story 2 - how can the computer system described in the story be seen to enhance management (of self, of a business etc.)?
Outline the issues raised by how these actants are acting, e.g. is Big Data being generated? If so, what does Morozov say are the issues? Are human behaviours being adjusted - if so, what does Nicholas Carr say about that, e.g. effect of Internet on our ability to deeply think? Do the stories describe an innovative combination of technology plus free time? If so, what does Clay Shirky say about that in his theory of "cognitive surplus"? Each week we will look at yet another author, and what they consider the "big issues" of computing - use these as much as possible to create debate and counter-debate.
