This edited volume brings together experts from across the field of
education to explore how traditional pedagogic and didactic forms
and processes are changing, or even disappearing, as a result of
new technologies being used for education and learning. Considering
the use, opportunites and limitations of technologies including
interactive whiteboards, tablets, smart phones, search engines and
social media platforms, chapters draw on primary and secondary
research to illustrate the wide-reaching and often salient changes
which new digital technologies are introducing into educational
environments and learning practices around the world. Neither
claiming that traditional forms of learning must be replaced, nor
calling for a restoration of the school, Education in the Age of
the Screen offers a nuanced exploration of the implications of
digitization for education. Taking a broad view on education as a
social and cultural phenomenon, the volume focuses on three major
dimensions: the wider conditions against the background of which we
educate and are educated today, detailed examples of aesthetic
practices and educational initiatives in the current media culture,
and concrete answers to the challenges that come our way. A
comprehensive and timely consideration of the state of education in
the digital age, this will be of interest to researchers, academics
and post-graduate students in the fields of education and pedagogy,
media and cultural studies, as well as teacher educators and
trainee teachers.
