The omnishambolic shitstorm that is Brexit has highlighted many things.
For example, coverage of the whole debacle online and across print and broadcast media has increased the need to teach a subject that looks at tech, media and business.
For example, so kids…
- Can understand why the big social platforms are so effective at what they do
- Are better equipped to spot fake news and understand why it spreads
- Know what targeted advertising is and why Downing Street is paying to put tweets in front of people:
- Can learn how to set up and run their own business online and avoid redundancy
- Appreciate the value of collaboration
However the sorry, embarrassing calamity pans out, we need educated kids to take over our jobs and create new ones.
