Hello SIGCISers, My college is hiring an adjunct professor to teach our course, Computers & Society, which was originally designed by Andy Russell before I took it over for four years. There's lots of latitude regarding *what* gets taught in the course. I paste the full ad below, but here is the bit that gives some description of the course. "This course examines the historical, social, political, and moral aspects of computers, the Internet, social media, and digital technologies more generally. The course topics and readings can be quite flexible, but usually consist of some computer history, ICT policy debates, computer and media culture, and ethical and societal aspects of the computing professions."
