3. Changing tools – digtal transformations

4. Appearance of
technology
We used to talk about digital
tools as artifacts that allowed us
to achieve things – but they also
fragmented us and how teachers
and students engage
Example Email
Viégas, F. B., Boyd, D., Nguyen, D. H., Potter, J., & Donath, J. (2004, January). Digital artifacts for
remembering and storytelling: Posthistory and social network fragments. In 37th Annual Hawaii International
Conference on System Sciences, 2004. Proceedings of the (pp. 10-pp). IEEE.

5. Technology as a
way of thinking
Does fragmentation through
technology lead to fragmentations in
education?
Think - LMS, presentation tools
(ppt/prezie..), video platforms (BBB,
Zoom, MS Teams, Webex…)….

6. Digital making and
learning – things we
HAVE to remember
- pedagogical traditions
- justice
- how we can stay human with digitality

7. “New” digital materialities – example: grading

8. Emergence of a posthuman connectivism
in pedagogy
We have learned that
Our lives (teachers’, students’) are entangled with our environments including the digital
This realisation means when we are operating in digital environments with digital materials we
are still humans with human needs
If done right, digital technologies can offer new possibilities to reflect on who we are and what
makes us special
It will require that we remind ourselves how we maintain meaningful connections that bring
teachers and learners together
