[close] I opted to read The Monsters of Education Technology, which seems to be a collection of lectures and essays on the history and dangers of edutech. I know, I know...it seems odd to want to read something like that while in a Master's program for edutech but as a technophile I feel it'd be worthwhile to fully understand both sides of the issue.

Feb 29, 2020 Anthony Nguyen rated it it was amazing

If you're inundated with tools and ideas and you're just looking for a relaxing read without feeling pressured to have to try something new, I recommend this book! I also recommend it if you want to learn more about the origins of a lot of today's ed-tech, even if Watters' take on it is somewhat pessimistic. It's a quick read since it's a collection of speeches; each "chapter" flows extremely well.
