Abstract

Technoethics is a discipline that seeks to analyze technology's effect on society. This is accomplished by evaluating each proposal from two perspectives: holistic impact and practical application. The first approach looks at how the tool will benefit society and any potential risks from its introduction. The second review evaluates the design used to create the product to understand if this is the best possible construct or whether an alternative would reduce potential harm. The history of technoethics in this setting and the efficacy of educational guidance toward better outcomes are examined and evaluated. Included are recommendations about how institutions could enhance their curriculum to better promote societal well-being.
