listen to DER’s Neil Selwyn talk with Audrey Watters about her long career as an EdTech critic, and also her forthcoming book ‘Teaching Machines’. The conversation takes in Audrey’s experiences as an independent scholar, the online flak she gets as a female critical voice, as well as her new writing that explores the work of twentieth century psychologists (notably BF Skinner) in building ‘teaching machines’ that laid the foundation of the current push for digital ‘personalised learning’ and other automated teaching tools.
