| Abstract | Information and technology as repository of truth [depositum veritatis] were at the core of university foundation in the Middle Ages and, after seven centuries of an extraordinary corporative and intellectual scaffolding of the Idea of a university, a remarkably similar but widespread role is visible today. What are then the reasons behind of the outcries of the "techno-skeptics" on the purportedly "new repository of truth" Web 2.0 and the like in the 21st Century? This paper tries to provide an answer to the question by making a case for Technology in Higher Education that is oriented towards truth. |
