Every instructor brings a variety of personal knowledge and experience to a course.
But nowhere is the breadth of that knowledge and experience more important than in teaching social issues of computing. Some of the key personal resources that you will draw from include your own academic background, teaching style, life experience, and technical experience. Courses in social issues of computing are offered in departments of philosophy, or management, or computer science. And some faculty argue that only members of their discipline are qualified to present this topic. But we believe that many disciplines are needed, even though any one instructor is unlikely to master all of them.
