In 2020 it will be curtains for ITGS and we welcome the new DIGITAL SOCIETY course. In this new course students will have an opportunity to explore contemporary digital society from inquiry-rich perspectives and form connections between their own experiences, real world issues and Digital Society's multi-disciplinary content. Digital Society aims at developing student understanding and knowledge of these major themes:
Disruption: changes to how we do things as well as perceive, understand or describe them.
Sustainability: living within limits of available material, ecological and social resources to ensure and promote our well-being and that of future generations.
Identities: the multiple ways that we present and understand ourselves both individually and collectively;
Agency: the ability to make choices and take meaningful and intentional action in the world.
Power: an essential feature of all social relations involving the capacity to influence, control or enable the actions of others.
