abstract |
This paper aims to unravel the interlacing of learning theories and media theories
in order to map out how the link between digital culture and open education has been
argued in related research and scholarship. Taking into account evolving trends and
trajectories in the fields of digital networked technology and education since the
1990s, it argues for the multiple articulations of mediation as a core component in
competing discourses about competence formation. These are centred on three evolving
and interrelated trends: a) the increased emphasis on computer mediated communication
and collaboration as shapers of meaning and improvement; b) the introduction of media
logics in particular fields and domains of education; and c) datafication and metrics
as means of both self-organization or management and cross-promotional strategies.
While several scholars within critical media literacy traditions and critical educational
technology have dealt with evolving trends in technology and competing discourses
as writing passage from the information to data-driven society, developing a fuller
sense of these trajectories can enable us to chart out interconnected threads of power,
conflict and subversion that frame learning as a competitive endeavour and reconfigure
the expansion of education in broader areas of society. |
