New Media, New Ethics?

By Margaret Syverson

This book addresses a missing piece of the public conversations about ethics and digital media. The chapters in this book were written by college students at the University of Texas in a course called Ethics and New Media, offered in spring of 2015 and taught by Peg Syverson. The chapters reflect the students' deep inquiry through research on their peers, reading, online discussion, and editorial work. In its chapters, college students report their research on the ethical dilemmas faced by their peers. The results are provocative, wide-ranging, and surprising. They raise further questions about how we can continue to include the voices of those most affected by new media in our public discussions about ethics, internet regulation, appropriate use of technology by children, and wise guidance from parents, spiritual leaders, and teachers.
