Episode notesThis episode explores our ethical responsibilities in relation to using technology in the classroom, including issues related to privacy, child safeguarding, digital citizenship, and equitable access to resources. I discuss issues arising from historic and contemporary technological and scientific advancement. Crucially, I consider the implications that digitalising education has for us, as educators, and for our learners.ReferencesKnox, D. (2022, Nov 7).
