This book attends to the transformation of processes and practices
in education, relating to its increasing digitisation and
datafication. The introduction of new means to measure, capture,
describe and represent social life in numbers has not only
transformed the ways in which teaching and learning are organised,
but also the ways in which future generations (will) construct
reality with and through data. Contributions consider data
practices that span across different countries, educational fields
and governance levels, ranging from early childhood education, to
schools, universities, educational technology providers, to
educational policy making and governance. The book demonstrates how
digital data not only support decision making, but also
fundamentally change the organisation of learning and teaching, and
how these transformation processes can have partly ambivalent
consequences, such as new possibilities for participation, but also
the monitoring and emergence/manifestation of inequalities.
Focusing on how data can drive decision making in education and
learning, this book will be of interest to those studying both
educational technology and educational policy making. The chapters
in this book were originally published in Learning, Media and
Technology. Chapter 4 is available Open Access at
https://www.routledge.com/products/9780367357191.

This open access book attends to the co-creation of digital public
services for ageing societies. Increasingly public services are
provided in digital form; their uptake however remains well below
expectations. In particular, amongst older adults the need for
public services is high, while at the same time the uptake of
digital services is lower than the population average. One of the
reasons is that many digital public services (or e-services) do not
respond well to the life worlds, use contexts and use practices of
its target audiences. This book argues that when older adults are
involved in the process of identifying, conceptualising, and
designing digital public services, these services become more
relevant and meaningful. The book describes and compares three
co-creation projects that were conducted in two European cities,
Bremen and Zaragoza, as part of a larger EU-funded innovation
project. The first part of the book traces the origins of
co-creation to three distinct domains, in which co-creation has
become an equally important approach with different understandings
of what it is and entails: (1) the co-production of public
services, (2) the co-design of information systems and (3) the
civic use of open data. The second part of the book analyses how
decisions about a co-creation project's governance structure, its
scope of action, its choice of methods, its alignment with
strategic policies and its embedding in existing public information
infrastructures impact on the process and its results. The final
part of the book identifies key challenges to co-creation and
provides a more general assessment of what co-creation may achieve,
where the most promising areas of application may be and where it
probably does not match with the contingent requirements of digital
public services. Contributing to current discourses on digital
citizenship in ageing societies and user-centric design, this book
is useful for researchers and practitioners interested in
co-creation, public sector innovation, open government, ageing and
digital technologies, citizen engagement and civic participation in
socio-technical innovation.
Das Open-Access-Buch versteht sich als Einladung über diverse
Zukünfte datafizierter Schule nachzudenken. An der Schnittstelle
von Bildungsforschung, Erziehungswissenschaft, Soziologie,
Informatik und Kommunikationswissenschaft untersuchen wir mit Blick
auf Ambivalenzen die Produktion, Sammlung, Distribution und
Verwendung von Daten im Schulsystem. Mit einem qualitativen,
schnittstellenübergreifenden, interdisziplinären Ansatz
beforschen wir Datafizierung aus Critical Data Studies Perspektive
und diskutieren theoretische sowie methodische Herausforderungen
der Datafizierungsforschung.Â
This Open Access book examines the ambivalences of data power.
Firstly, the ambivalences between global infrastructures and local
invisibilities challenge the grand narrative of the ephemeral
nature of a global data infrastructure. They make visible local
working and living conditions, and the resources and arrangements
required to operate and run them. Secondly, the book examines
ambivalences between the state and data justice. It considers data
justice in relation to state surveillance and data capitalism, and
reflects on the ambivalences between an "entrepreneurial state" and
a "welfare state". Thirdly, the authors discuss ambivalences of
everyday practices and collective action, in which civil society
groups, communities, and movements try to position the interests of
people against the "big players" in the tech industry. The book
includes eighteen chapters that provide new and varied perspectives
on the role of data and data infrastructures in our increasingly
datafied societies.
