Social networks have been recognized as a fertile learning environment, particularly in encouraging the exchange of knowledge. Students primarily use online communities and groups to read, exchange textbooks, make joint decisions, or share learning materials. Present work assesses the relationship between informal digital learning and formal…

The landscape of English Language Teaching (ELT) has evolved significantly over the past 75 years, marked by major shifts in theoretical, technological, and sociocultural approaches to language teaching and learning.

Over the past years, there has been an increasing prevalence of 'nudge thinking' in the educational field. While (critical) research on the rising adoption of nudging has increasingly proliferated in the broader social sciences over the past decades, nudging in education -- what we designate here as "Edunudge" -- is, however, only…

Technology has been an important influence on the development of education. However, very little research in Educational Technology considers this history, and even less questions it.

The paper proposes a framework for thinking about digital technologies, including AI, in education. The framework combines Don Ihde's postphenomenology and Seymour Papert's constructionism. The former is rooted in the philosophy of technology, the latter -- in education and technology. The intersections between the two theories have been mentioned…

Courses: Communication Technology, Communication Theory, History of Communication, Media and Society. Objectives: Students will develop an understanding of the two principal theories of technology and culture: technological determinism and the social construction of technology.
