Stephen Downes

Knowledge, Learning, Community

I had the plan of turning a talk I gave last year on Ethics, Analytics and the Duty of Care into an article. I've been working on it for a while, and it has gradually become a book project (my raw raw notes are here and my draft text is here). As I suggested in Brazil when I gave the talk is that there is no simple agreement on ethics, and issues that are presented as clear-cut (such as: we're all against surveillance!) are far from obvious when we actually look at them. Anyhow, this is a draft chapter from the book, and its sole purpose is to provide a list of the (many many) ethical issues involved in the use of analytics and artificial intelligence to support learning. Comments are of course welcome.
