This course introduces cadets to concepts of studying the impact of connected technologies and data collection on society. It enhances lethality and warfighting capabilities by improving critical thinking and decision-making abilities, preparing cadets for the challenges they will face on the modern battlefield as technology continues to advance. The course supports the pillars of Academic, Physical, and Military development to prepare cadets for future leadership challenges. This approach is accomplished through synthesizing arguments in short, two-page papers, conducting peer reviews of other students' papers, and applying course readings to real-world examples through a variety of case study formats. A term-end exam is completed by the course's end. **This is a pilot course and must receive CC review NLT AY27-2 to continue.**
