Ritella, Giuseppe; Ligorio, Maria Beatrice; Hakkarainen, Kai – Frontline Learning Research, 2016
Due to ongoing cultural-historical transformations, the space-time of learning is radically changing, and theoretical conceptualizations are needed to investigate how such evolving space-time frames can function as a ground for learning.
