When the tools of governing change, governance changes too. This is primarily an experiential course given in collaboration with the Boston Mayor's Office of New Urban Mechanics. Class participants will imagine, design, refine, and prototype technological solutions to problems identified by neighborhood clients with whom the class will work closely. The class also provides an overview of how local and national governments around the world are using digital resources to better serve their citizens and identifies techniques drawn from these pioneering practices.
