Teaching Naked: How Moving Technology Out of Your College Classroom Will Improve Student Learning (Book Review)

Abstract

The book Teaching Naked: How Moving Technology Out of Your College Classroom Will Improve Student Learning, written by José Antonio Bowen, argues that meaningful learning occurs primarily through human interaction rather than digital technology. His argument that technology should be used strategically rather than added to existing teaching methods remains highly relevant even today, and technology should enhance pedagogy rather than replace traditional human-centered teaching. In an era where online platforms and AI-driven tools are reshaping education, Bowen’s message is clear: technology should serve pedagogy, not replace it. For those committed to fostering authentic communication and learner engagement, the book offers both inspiration and practical guidance.
