"This book connects a cross-section of educators, researchers and administrators in a dialogue and exploration of imaginative and creative ways of teaching, learning and conducting educational inquiry"
I feel like I'm the only one shouting this from the rooftop, so finally glad to have come across folks focused on edu research from a speculative/generative agenda
@discoursology and the reason I'm interested in digital education/online learning is because it overcomes the core exclusionary logic of access to education in physical IRL learning — Competition due to limitation on the number of students that can be enrolled based on the number seats
There is an extremely unique, ubiquitous, obvious property of the digital that is not appreciated enough
The ability to use an object/service by millions at the same time, like simultaneously without having to compete with each other
That it affords/creates transient, temporary spaces for billions of people to inhabit, use at the same time without one needing to compete with another to use it is kinda marvellous
@impactology We have bits and pieces in Learning, Media and Technology ok these issues. (Often, but not always, open access) Including Sian’s recent piece on Digital utopias. Maybe you’ll find interesting reading there? #imagination#utopia#speculativemethods
"From our conception of human development through our ways of educating teachers to the teaching of mathematics, they argue for the centrality of imagination in the realization of human potential, and for its relevance to the most urgent problems confronting our world"
