"The book also presents ideas for educators. For instance, to
encourage IT people to be naturally proactive, courses should
leverage the creation and production of IT projects with solving
society's problems. With some effort, this can be done in computers
and society courses, at both the general and professional education
level. At the professional level, IT workers with such experience
and training will more likely choose to work on problem areas. At
the general level, people with such experience will act
politically, to vocalize the expectation that the IT industry will
create products that help society." (Computing Reviews,
