In this module, you explored a number of different ways that education technologies can be tools for control: controlling access to information, controlling behaviour, controlling learning.

For this activity, you will consider the digital spaces that you frequent for education. Choose one tool or learning environment and reflect on how your behaviour in that space is constrained by the design of the system.

  • What are you able to do?
  • What are you prevented from doing?
  • How does this impact your experience in the space?
  • How might this impact the design of learning experiences?
  • How might this impact the student-teacher relationship?

Post your reflection in your Learning Portfolio. Make sure to also include a short self-reflection on why you chose this activity, how it aligned with your learning goals, and what you learned.
