Reminder: Key Points

Let's get some key points from each of our speakers. Fill in the following:

Professor _ visited our class to talk about _. Professor _'s visit challenged us to think differently about technology. In particular, _.

We'll do this for Robertson, Graham, and Roper.

Then we'll think about relationships.

Are there knowledge systems other than indigenous knowledge systems that you see as raising similar issues? Why or why not?
