Description

Today's schools, colleges and universities operate along high-tech lines, while new forms of online education have emerged to challenge the dominance of traditional institutions. Many experts believe that the rapid digitization of education over the past ten years has undoubtedly been a 'good thing.' Neil Selwyn challenges this received wisdom and questions the values, agendas and interests that stand to gain most from the rise of digital education. His concise, up-to-date analysis concludes by considering alternative approaches that might be capable of rescuing - and perhaps revitalizing - the ideals of public education, while not denying the possibilities of digital technology altogether. -- from back cover.
