ITT November 2012 Book Club selection: Howard Rheingold’s Net Smart
The Innovation in Teaching & Technology Book Club continues in November 2012 with the third book selection, Howard Rheingold’s Net Smart (2012, MIT Press). The ITT Book Club will be meeting this fall to discuss the following book:
Rheingold, Howard (2012). Net Smart: How to thrive online. Cambridge, MA: MIT Press.
The future of digital culture—yours, mine, and ours—depends on how well we learn to use the media that have infiltrated, amplified, distracted, enriched, and complicated our lives. I’ve been asking myself and others how to use social media intelligently, humanely, and above all mindfully. This book is about what I’ve learned.
All faculty, staff, and students are welcome to join us. If you are interested in participating, please submit this form.
The discussion will take place Monday, December 3, at 1:00 pm (room TBA). You are responsible to purchase the book on your own. Food will be provided at the discussion!
