Thesis (Ph.D.)--The University of Wisconsin - Madison, 1994.

Through my dissertation, I analyze information technologies in the context of current initiatives to reform the practices of schooling. To focus my analysis on practices which construct information technology as their object, my first objective is to analyze practices of the state, private businesses, the media, and higher education, which relate information technology to patterns of social regulation in the field of Education. I refer to these practices as the deployment of information technology in the field of Education. My second objective is to research the construction of the child as a subject of this deployment of information technology. Through discourse analysis, I distinguish three strategic practices that form a historically specific conjuncture around modern ideals which associate this deployment with notions of human progress. These practices include the augmentation of the mental capacities of children with technology, the association of information technology with the pleasures of children, and the pastoral management of children as sociotechnical resources.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a Through my dissertation, I analyze information technologies in the context of current initiatives to reform the practices of schooling. To focus my analysis on practices which construct information technology as their object, my first objective is to analyze practices of the state, private businesses, the media, and higher education, which relate information technology to patterns of social regulation in the field of Education. I refer to these practices as the deployment of information technology in the field of Education. My second objective is to research the construction of the child as a subject of this deployment of information technology. Through discourse analysis, I distinguish three strategic practices that form a historically specific conjuncture around modern ideals which associate this deployment with notions of human progress. These practices include the augmentation of the mental capacities of children with technology, the association of information technology with the pleasures of children, and the pastoral management of children as sociotechnical resources.
520 $a The deployment of information technology in the field of Education, I argue, concerns the realization of a pre-given and universal goal--an urgent need for systemic restructuring of schooling to prepare children for a post-industrial society. This preparation of children for a post-industrial society is to be realized, in part, through the application of the available means presented by information technologies. These available means, I explain, correspond to the strategic practices referred to above and include the augmentation of the cognitive capabilities of the child, the regulation of the child's motivation, and the adaptation of management information systems to the practices of schooling. As part of the pursuit of foundational knowledge to realize this goal, the deployment of information technology in the field of Education is assumed to be an inherently ethical practice. To challenge this assumption, I argue that the dangers of this deployment emerge as the pre-given and universal goal for systemic restructuring of schooling to prepare children for a post-industrial society is abstracted from the ethical implications of the micro practices of these available means.
