“Values, Ethics and Innovation

  1. How do “society and technology develop in tandem, with technologies shaping and embodying societal values,”?
  2. Why can we no longer assume that technological and economic progress are automatically aligned with social progress?
  3. What are the two most widely held beliefs about technology and how do they both reflect an inadequate understanding of technology’s role in society?
  4. What is Collingridge’s dilemma?
  5. How has the US responded to this dilemma vs. European countries like the UK?
  6. The article uses the example of the automobile as a technology that fundamentally changed society. It lists many changes, both positive and negative, that

the automobile brought to society but also makes sure to state that “None of these impacts were inevitable”. Why?

  1. According to the article, what is the “central question” surrounding technology that a humancentered approach must always take into consideration?
  2. The question of what a meaningful future for mankind might look like could be different for a variety of people so why can’t we simply let the free market

decide what the “majority” of people want?

  1. The article claims that, “Despite the tendency to think of technologies as objects or tools, they inevitably embody the values of their creators,”. Who do

we generally think of as the creators of technology? Is there a bias inherent in this type of thinking and/or the reality of who creates technology for whom?

How does the article propose to fix this bias?

  1. How can inclusion practices help mitigate the potential consequences of “surface assumptions” in creating new technology and/or its uses in society?
  2. How is it profitable as well as ethical to adhere to what the article calls “transformative innovation”?
  3. What do they mean when they say that the challenge to create a transformative and ethical relationship between technology and society is a “systemic

challenge”? Bonus Question: How can innovation and the creation of new technologies be compared to having a child?

Why is it important to know about theories on brain and psychosocial (identity stages) development as a parent, teacher, policymaker or for oneself?
Discuss the video on growth vs. fixed mindset and how does it improve on the way people learn and develop? How can we help our teens develop a growth mindset?
Why is Adolescence described as being the most difficult times in parenting with intensity in conflict compared to earlier years? Are teens relationships with

adults more important than peers?
What do you think are the most pressing issues for our teenagers? (identity/growing up, eating disorders, bullying, cyberbullying, anxiety, depression,

suicide, anti-social/violence behavior, etc.) In regards to the video that teens brains are wired for addiction, what do parents, teachers and/or policymakers

need to do to support their teens?
