as a concept, Networked Learning has eclipsed e-learning, partly due to the emphasis on dialogue, collaboration, co-operative and collective inquiry

I hope we see more legal action like this Edtech is a data broker. If isn’t there to help children or students, it is there to broker your child’s data and your data out to everyone who will pay for it. There is no money in education otherwise is there! We know this.

🟨Volume 50, Issue 1 (2025) of LMT🟪 Let's introduce our new Special Issue! In their editorial @jkom.bsky.social, @keanbirch.bsky.social & Sam Sellar intruduce the dynamics of #rentiership and #assetisation in the digitalisation of education. Read all articles: tinyurl.com/a8bvzkxe
Learning, Media and Technology Mapping rentiership and assetisation in the digitalisation of education Edited by Janja Komljenovic, Kean Birch and Sam Sellar This special issue builds on emerging work on rentiership and assetisation in education to address the lack of analytical attention on these dynamics and to begin mapping a future research agenda for the field. To date, research in this field has introduced key concepts for understanding assetisation and has illuminated potential challenges for the digitalisation of higher education (Komljenovic 2021, 2022). Other areas of investigation include: how assetisation relates to other economic processes in education and how it remakes educational processes and subjects as com- modified entities (Grimaldi, Ball, and Peruzzo 2023); how automated interventions in education are calculated based on assetised resources (Hansen and Komljenovic 2023); the potential for, and challenges of, digital disruption in digital economies organised subject to assetised governance (Komljenovic et al. 2024a); the assetisation strategies of edupreneurs as they collaborate with edu- cation and research sectors (Ideland and Serder 2023); the futuring activities of EdTech investors (Komljenovic et al. 2023; Komljenovic, Sellar, and Birch 2024b; Williamson and Komljenovic 2023); and the translation of tuition fees into assets (Milyaeva and Neyland 2020)

Been thinking again about this quote from Sherry Turkle and what it means amidst the push to cement GenAI in education: "[I]t's almost like we dumb down or dehumanize our sense of what human relationships should be because we measure them by what machines can give us." www.npr.org/2026/01/01/1...

When Sam Altman expresses views about the future of education and the role of AI in it - as he did this week in his very silly "Age of Intelligence" post - I think it's important to realize he is absolutely full of shit 1/
t won’t happen all at once, but we’ll soon be able to work with AI that helps us accomplish much more than we ever could without AI; eventually we can each have a personal AI team, full of virtual experts in different areas, working together to create almost anything we can imagine. Our children will have virtual tutors who can provide personalized instruction in any subject, in any language, and at whatever pace they need. We can imagine similar ideas for better healthcare, the ability to create any kind of software someone can imagine, and much more.

It just makes me sad that when you work in education, you hold power, and people are abusing that with edtech. Everything about education today links to control and surveillance in some way. And that is destroying the trust we need to do the work effectively. I just don’t know if enough people care
