Parallels and Responses to Curricular Innovation

<p>This volume explores two radical shifts in history and subsequent responses in curricular spaces: the move from oral to print culture in the 15<sup>th</sup> century and the rise of the Society of Jesus (the Jesuits) who created the first global network of education and the move from print to digital culture in the 20<sup>th</sup> century and the rise of what the philosopher Jean Baudrillard called hyperreality. The resulting dilemma calls for a curriculum that highlights the key tension between Man and Machine. The proposition of posthumanistic education then is meant to help students discern their humanness in the face of the complications that come along with digital life. </p>
