TECH 361 - Making a Sustainable, Inclusive, and Just Future: The New Industrial RevolutionFC CNDP 4 credits The Maker Revolution has been described as the “New Industrial Revolution.” Despite benefits, the first Industrial Revolution contributed to increased economic disparity, social injustices, and widespread environmental degradation. In this course, we ask: can we really afford a new Industrial Revolution? Students will critique the maker movement, considering what communities have been excluded and exploring whether we can make solutions to poverty and sustainability. Students will develop resources to grow a sustainable and inclusive maker culture throughout the Conservatory and College. In so doing, they will provide a model for a future of ethically-driven making across industry and education.
