With the growing impetus to reimagine pedagogies, is there anything we may have overlooked? The authors of this book, who are both academics, have sounded a cautionary tale against going overboard with the latest technologies, whether in education or other industries, and neglecting the basics such as maintenance. They also question whether scarce resources should be drained from the teaching of fundamental subjects and rechannelled into the latest fads — such as artificial intelligence and coding. This book is recommended as a counter-approach to embracing “glamorous” new technologies without recognising the work and effort required to keep things running.
