Enhancing the Scientia of Science
Technology is changing our world – how we live, learn and communicate. In 2018, UNSW will admit the first students to university who have never known a world without computers, who were only one year olds when Wikipedia began, four when Facebook was launched and seven when the first iPhone was released. How has this impacted the way they think and learn?
In this lecture, Professor Lutze-Mann explored how we utilise technology to enhance the acquisition of the scientia (knowledge) of science amongst our students and the general community in a world where it is increasingly important to be able to distinguish the false from the factual.
