1 Sociology of Information & Communication Technology Mondays , Thursdays , Dunning Hall 14 Dr. Norma Möllers Dept. of Sociology Office: D531 Mackintosh-Corry Phone: (613) ext Office hours: Mondays 11am 1pm SOCY284 Fall 2016 TA info will be posted on onq COURSE DESCRIPTION Information and communication technologies pervade contemporary societies. Be it work or play, they form the infrastructures through which many of our daily interactions are mediated. This course introduces you to the field of science & technology studies (STS), focusing on how technology and society influence each other in a range of different contexts. By critically engaging with theoretical debates and empirical studies, we will look at how social norms and values shape technologies designs, how technologies are implicated in maintaining social order, and how people use, appropriate, and resist technologies. LEARNING OBJECTIVES Through this course, you should gain knowledge and understanding: the ability to identify and describe key questions and concerns of technology in society; as well as a command of basic concepts in science and technology studies; an appreciation of the contested nature of technology in society; reading skills: some of the text will be challenging for you. This is either because they are theoretically dense, or because they were written based on technologies with which you will not be familiar (or both). The concepts they develop are still central to understanding the roles of information and communication technologies in social processes. In this course, you will develop reading strategies with the aim of transferring concepts across different technologies and contexts. writing skills: academic writing doesn t come naturally and needs to be learned and exercised. I have designed the assignments so they break down the process of writing a term paper into smaller tasks. This will help you build up material throughout the course which you can draw on when the time comes to write the term paper. 1 SOCY284 FALL 2016
2 EXPECTATIONS & ASSIGNMENTS I expect you to read the papers listed under required readings and to complete the assignments. I have listed quite a few additional readings under recommended readings - don t panic, you don t have to read these for class; but they are a good starting point for your term papers. In order to pass this course, you will need to complete five assignments. These assignments are: one technology diary, one reaction paper, one term paper outline, two constructive comments, and one term paper. I will give more detailed instructions on each assignment two weeks before each relevant deadline. For your technology diary, you will choose one technology from your everyday life, and observe and record your interactions with and through this technology for one day. Use your notes to identify and discuss what norms and values are activated in interacting with/through this technology (2-3 pages, double-spaced). The reaction paper (6-7 pages, double-spaced) will critically engage with two readings of your choice. Critically engage means that you do not only summarize the readings, but creatively explore your agreement/disagreement with the readings in order to generate and discuss questions that go beyond the readings. Term paper outlines (2-3 pages, double-spaced) will sketch the topic you intend to write about in a storyboard, including a preliminary bibliography. Give headings to the different sections which form the structure of your paper, and write a paragraph under each which briefly summarizes the section. Try to articulate as concisely as possible your topic, the problems and questions it raises, and where and how you intend to look for answers. You will write two short comments (1-2 paragraphs) that engage in a constructive way with your co-students term proposals. Constructive here means that you explore your agreement or disagreement with your co-students thoughts to help them explore their topic. Why do you agree/disagree? What other questions did your co-students ideas made you think of? Do you have suggestions about further sources/readings/events/phenomena that your co-students proposal does not mention but might be useful? This also implies that the comments have to be written in a respectful manner. Comments that do not engage with co-students thoughts, or are in any way disrespectful will lead to an automatic fail on the assignment. For your term paper (10 12 pages, double-spaced), try to aim for a minimum of 5 academic sources. I will not take points off if you use less -- what is important is that your argument or exploration is convincing. However, bear in mind that using appropriate sources as evidence for your argument will very likely make it stronger. The term paper may have one of the following formats: a) An in-depth exploration of any of the seminar s topics. You might want to use your reaction papers, recommended readings, comments and classroom discussions as a starting point. b) an essay in which you use concepts you learn in this course to analyze your everyday experience with technology, using your technology diary as the basis for critical engagement; c) an essay in which you use concepts you learn in this course to analyze an event related to ICTs which was covered in the news media. This would require you to do some research to obtain sources. d) You have different ideas? Come see me, and we ll discuss it. 2 SOCY284 FALL 2016
3 SUBMISSION & DEADLINES Assignments have to be submitted through onq by the specified deadline. I can only grant you extensions in exceptional cases and if you have made a request prior to the deadline. Note that in all other cases I will take 5% off your grade per day. Deadlines are as follows: Technology diary: week 2 / Sep. 23 / PM Reading response: week 6 / Oct. 21 / PM Term paper proposals: week 8 / Nov. 4 / PM Constructive comments: week 9 / Nov. 11 / PM Term paper: week 12 / Dec. 2 / PM GRADING Assignments have numerical percentage marks which are distributed as follows: Technology diary: 5% Reading response: 30% Term paper proposal: 15% Constructive comments: 5% Term paper: 45% The technology diary and constructive comments are on a pass/fail basis and will not be graded. For your final grade, your numerical course average then will be converted to a letter grade according to the Queen s Official Grade Conversion Scale: Grade Numerical Range A A A B B B C C C D D D F 49 and below ORGANIZATION The course will be taught through two lectures per week. TA info will be available via onq. 3 SOCY284 FALL 2016
4 A NOTE ON READINGS AND RESOURCES All readings, as well as course outline, lecture slides, and TA information will be available via onq. Note that this material is copyrighted and is for the sole use of students registered in the course. This material shall not be distributed or disseminated to anyone other than students registered in the course. Failure to abide by these conditions is a breach of copyright, and may also constitute a breach of academic integrity under the University Senate s Academic Integrity Policy Statement. ACADEMIC INTEGRITY Academic Integrity is constituted by the five core fundamental values of honesty, trust, fairness, respect and responsibility (see These values are central to the building, nurturing and sustaining of an academic community in which all members of the community will thrive. Adherence to the values expressed through academic integrity forms a foundation for the freedom of inquiry and exchange of ideas essential to the intellectual life of the University (see the Senate Report on Principles and Priorities). Students are responsible for familiarizing themselves with the regulations concerning academic integrity and for ensuring that their assignments conform to the principles of academic integrity. Information on academic integrity is available in the Arts and Science Calendar (see Academic Regulation 1), on the Arts and Science website, and from the instructor of this course. Departures from academic integrity include plagiarism, use of unauthorized materials, facilitation, forgery and falsification, and are antithetical to the development of an academic community at Queen's. Given the seriousness of these matters, actions which contravene the regulation on academic integrity carry sanctions that can range from a warning or the loss of grades on an assignment to the failure of a course to a requirement to withdraw from the university. ACCOMODIATION FOR DISABILITIES Queen's University is committed to achieving full accessibility for people with disabilities. Part of this commitment includes arranging academic accommodations for students with disabilities to ensure they have an equitable opportunity to participate in all of their academic activities. If you are a student with a disability and think you may need accommodations, you are strongly encouraged to contact the Queen's Student Accessibility Services (QSAS) and register as early as possible. For more information, including important deadlines, please visit the QSAS website. 4 SOCY284 FALL 2016
