TEACHING MACHINES (Forthcoming). Teaching Machines chronicles the twentieth century history of education technology and (as the title suggests) of teaching machines – specifically, the long-running desire to build machines that will automate and thus improve the efficiency of the education process. It’s a history that is deeply intertwined with the development of the field of educationalRESEARCH
As part of my work as an education writer, I have researched a number of topics in-depth. Below, you'll find links to various projects, pastand present.
SELECTED ESSAYS
No, Sesame Street Was Not the First MOOC. Research arguing that Sesame Street is just as good as preschool has been making the rounds lately. One of the arguments: Sesame Street is the first MOOC. Nope. It wasn't. Indeed, Sesame Street is the opposite of what's become popularized as MOOCs. Because Sesame Street is actually based onresearch.
CURRICULUM VITAE
Curriculum Vitae. Short and long versions. Writing. I write. I've always written. I hate it, and I love it, and I wouldn't want to do anything else. I write essays and analysis (and rants) about education technology on my site Hack Education..

I refreshed some of the content on the Hack Education Ed-Tech Guide.; I added a section with some details, including a partial bibliography and a chapter outline, about my forthcoming book Teaching Machines.; Both of these sections exist as – and the pages are run off of – GitHubrepositories.
RESEARCH
Learning to Code. In the fall of 2011, I wrote a terrific screed about what I saw as the failures of the popular site Codecademy to help me learn to code. The article stirred a lot of interest (it continues to be one of the most-read posts on Hack Education), and eventually led to a research project that examined what sorts of products and services are available online for helping novice KEYNOTES AND PUBLIC TALKS The Histories of Personalized Learning. This talk was delivered at the OEB MidSummit conference in Reykjavik, Iceland. I was part of the plenary on the future of learning, and so I wanted to talk a bit about the history of "personalized learning" and more broadly the history of"personalization."

As part of my work as an education writer, I have researched a number of topics in-depth. Below, you'll find links to various projects, pastand present.
CURRICULUM VITAE
Curriculum Vitae. Short and long versions. Writing. I write. I've always written. I hate it, and I love it, and I wouldn't want to do anything else. I write essays and analysis (and rants) about education technology on my site Hack Education.. I do freelance from time-to-time, and my work has appeared in The Baffler, The Atlantic, Vice, Boundary2, The Daily Dot, Bright, Hybrid Pedagogy, O USING GITHUB TO POWER A WEB PROJECT: HOW AND WHY Last week, I made a couple of updates to Hack Education:. I refreshed some of the content on the Hack Education Ed-Tech Guide.; I added a section with some details, including a partial bibliography and a chapter outline, about my forthcoming book Teaching Machines.; Both of these sections exist as – and the pages are run off of – GitHubrepositories.
RESEARCH
Learning to Code. In the fall of 2011, I wrote a terrific screed about what I saw as the failures of the popular site Codecademy to help me learn to code. The article stirred a lot of interest (it continues to be one of the most-read posts on Hack Education), and eventually led to a research project that examined what sorts of products and services are available online for helping novice KEYNOTES AND PUBLIC TALKS Technology Imperialism, the Californian Ideology, and the Future of Higher Education.

One of the best books I’ve read so far this year is Alexandra Lange’s The Design of Childhood.In it, Lange talks about the ways in which physical spaces and physical objects have been constructed to both encourage and impede certain kinds of activities and behaviors.

I published some 3400 words this past weekend on “The Invented History of ‘the Factory Model of Education.’ ” It’s part of my ongoing series on “The History of the Future of Education,” which in turn is part of the research for my book Teaching Machines.

WRITER
· Personal Blog Hack Education · Disclosures · CV I am an education writer, an independent scholar, a serial dropout, a rabble-rouser, and ed-tech's Cassandra. “It’s a long story,” I often say. You can catch snippets of it, if you pay attention. I’ve got a CV if you care about such formalities. And I wrote an FAQ if that helps. I love science fiction, tattoos, and, some days, computer technologies. I loathe mushy foods and romantic comedies. I’m not ashamed to admit I like ABBA and dislike Tolkien. I am somewhat ashamed to admit I’ve not finished _Ulysses_, and I've never even started _Infinite Jest_. I prefer cake to pie, unless we're talking pastry projectiles. I pick fights on the Internet. I’m a high school dropout and a PhD dropout. I have a Master's degree in Folklore and was once considered the academic expert on political pie-throwing. I was (I am?) a widow. I'm a mom. I have a hard stare that I like to imagine is much like Paddington Bear’s and a smirk much like the Cheshire Cat’s. I am not afraid. I travel as much as I possibly can. “Home,” at least according to my driver’s license, is Seattle, Washington. Way back in junior high, I took an aptitude test that gave me a single career option: freelance writer. I remember feeling rather panicky at the time, wondering how the hell I’d manage to pull it off. But nowI do.
My essays have appeared in multiple places, but mostly I write on my blog Hack Education . I've published four collections of my public talks, _The Monsters of Education Technology _ (2014), _The Revenge of the Monsters of Education Technology _ (2015), _The Curse of the Monsters of Education Technology _ (2016), and _The Monsters of Education Technology 4 _, as well as a book arguing that students should control their digital identities and digital work, _Claim Your Domain _. I'm in the middle of writing my next book, _Teaching Machines _, which will be published by MIT Press. I was a recipient of a Spencer Education Journalism Fellowship at Columbia University School of Journalism for the 2017-2018 academicyear.
In my spare time, I read, rabble-rouse, and prepare for the zombie apocalypse. Because you never know... ABOUT HACK EDUCATION I created Hack Education in June 2010 shortly after I became a technology journalist. I was frustrated by the lack of coverage of education technology -- by both technology and education publications. I did my day job (that is, the freelance writing I got paid for) but devoted as much attention as possible to Hack Education, trying to create the sort of publication that I'd want to read: one that's smart and snarky, one that's free of advertising and investor influence (See: Disclosures ), one that's tracking new technologies but not just because of some hyperbolic "revolution." To “hack” can mean a lot of things: To break in and break down. To cut to the core. To chop roughly. To be playful and clever. To be mediocre. To solve a problem, but to do so rather inelegantly. To pull systems apart. To "MacGyver" things back together. To re-code. To rebuild. To “Hack Education,” in turn, can have multiple interpretations, I recognize: a technological solution, a technology intrusion, a technological possibility, a technological disaster. Ed-tech is all those things. To "hack education" isn't something that just technologists should do or care about. Nor is this just a concern for teachers, administrators, parents, or students. We all should consider the implications of technology on how we teach and learn, lest the future of ed-tech be just like the history of ed-tech: learners as pigeons.
