Abstract: In Society, Technology, and Power, students completed two significant projects. The Technology and Society Analysis Project (TSAP) required students to analyze how social forces and technology interact to reshape our world, examining whether we should be optimistic or pessimistic about specific technologies. For their WIDGET projects, students addressed social/community problems by developing technological solutions, presenting critical analyses of their own work. This Symposium showcases selected TSAP and WIDGET presentations that demonstrate students' engagement with the complex relationship between technology and society.
