Om Parallels and Responses to Curricular Innovation
This volume explores two radical shifts in history and subsequent responses in curricular spaces: the move from oral to print culture in the 15th century and the rise of the Society of Jesus (the Jesuits) who created the first "global network" of education, and the move from print to digital culture in the 20th century and the rise of what the philosopher Jean Baudrillard called "hyperreality." The resulting dilemma calls for a curriculum that highlights the key tension between Man and Machine. The proposition of posthumanistic education, then, is meant to help students discern their humanness in the face of the complications that come along with digital life.
