What will I learn?

This course provides a focused, hands-on introduction to the philosophy of technique, exploring how technical systems influence work, urban environments, and daily life, especially via food delivery platforms. Learners will examine key philosophers like Ellul, Heidegger, and Simondon, sociological frameworks, algorithmic management, and data practices, then employ empirical research methods to create a concise, evidence-based report advocating for ethical design, policy reforms, and collective action.
