Drones for Good : How to Bring Sociotechnical Thinking into the Classroom Paperback / softback
by Gordon D. Hoople, Austin Choi-Fitzpatrick
Part of the Synthesis Lectures on Engineers, Technology, & Society series
Paperback / softback
Description
What in the world is a social scientist doing collaborating with an engineer, and an engineer with a sociologist, and together on a book about drones and sociotechnical thinking in the classroom?
This book emerges from a frustration that disciplinary silos create few opportunities for students to engage with others beyond their chosen major.
In this volume, Hoople and Choi-Fitzpatrick introduce a sociotechnical approach to truly interdisciplinary education around the exciting topic of drones.
The text, geared primarily at university faculty, provides a hands-on approach for engaging students in challenging conversations at the intersection of technology and society.
Choi-Fitzpatrick and Hoople provide a turnkey solution complete with detailed lesson plans, course assignments, and drone-based case studies.
They present a modular framework, describing how faculty might adopt their approach for any number of technologies and class configurations.
