Identity, Community, and Learning Lives in the Digital Age
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
Date: 22-10-2012
Abstract: Recent work on education, identity and community has expanded the intellectual boundaries of learning research. From home-based studies examining youth experiences with technology, to forms of entrepreneurial learning in informal settings, to communities of participation in the workplace, family, community, trade union and school, research has attempted to describe and theorize the meaning and nature of learning. Identity, Community, and Learning Lives in the Digital Age offers a systematic reflection on these studies, exploring how learning can be characterized across a range of 'whole-life' experiences. The volume brings together hitherto discrete and competing scholarly traditions: sociocultural analyses of learning, ethnographic literacy research, geo-spatial location studies, discourse analysis, comparative anthropological studies of education research and actor network theory. The contributions are united through a focus on the ways in which learning shapes lives in a digital age.

Gotta Catch 'em all: Structure, Agency and Pedagogy in Children's Media Culture
Publisher: SAGE Publications
Date: 05-2003
DOI: 10.1177/0163443703025003005
Abstract: This article uses an analytical case study of the Pokémon phenomenon as a means of addressing broader theoretical issues concerned with the relationships between structure and agency in children's media culture. It analyses the political economy of Pokémon, and its attempts to appeal to different sub-sections of the children's market the textual appeals of the different Pokémon artefacts, and the role of `knowledge' and debates about the positive and negative consequences for child consumers. In the process, the article explores the notion of `pedagogy' as an alternative means of understanding the relations between structure and agency, and assesses its possibilities and limitations in the context of the case study.

DOI: 10.1177/135485659600200207
Abstract: This article describes some findings from recent research into young people's creative uses of new technologies in the home. The first section considers a range of theoretical perspectives on children's relationship with digital technologies. It interrogates popular and academic claims about the potential of the computer as a means for facilitating creativity. The main body of the article presents quantitative and qualitative data from the study, focusing on the ways in which children learn to use new technologies, parental regulation in the home and the role of new technologies in sustaining peer group cultures. The analysis therefore aims to situate the use of computers within wider social and cultural contexts and practices. This raises further questions about the relationship between digital technology and the formal educational system the use of technology to define boundaries between childhood and adulthood and assumptions about economic and vocational futures for young people in this area.

Learning identities, education and community: Young lives in the cosmopolitan city
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
Date: 30-06-2016
Abstract: This book offers a case study of children and young people in Groruddalen, Norway, as they live, study and work within the contexts of their families, educational institutions and informal activities. Examining learning as a life-wide concept, the study reveals how & apos learning identities& apos are forged through complex interplays between young people and their communities, and how these identities translate and transfer across different locations and learning contexts. The authors also explore how erse immigrant populations integrate and conceptualize their education as a key route to personal meaning and future productivity. In highlighting the relationships between education, literacy and identity within a sociocultural context, this book is at the cutting edge of discussions about what matters as children learn.

Towards a cultural history of digital autodidacticism: changing cultural narratives of education
Publisher: Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)
Date: 23-04-2019
DOI: 10.5007/2175-795X.2019.E52964
Abstract: The essay argues that the various new imaginaries of the connected, creative, autonomous, coding, motivated and making digital learner have their roots in erse and older visions of a different kind education system (especially the craft learner working in communities of practice) than that promulgated by the human-capital inspired neoliberal governmentalised States in the world today. Tracing the histories of the older imaginaries in a cultural history of autodidacticism I examine how they become incorporated by, and thus recalibrate competing visions of the “new learner of tomorrow”.

Digital Rights, Digital Citizenship and Digital Literacy: What's the Difference?
Publisher: University of Alicante
Date: 15-01-2021
Abstract: Using digital media is complicated. Invasions of privacy, increasing dataveillance, digital-by-default commercial and civic transactions and the erosion of the democratic sphere are just some of the complex issues in modern societies. Existential questions associated with digital life challenge the in idual to come to terms with who they are, as well as their social interactions and realities. In this article, we identify three contemporary normative responses to these complex issues –digital citizenship, digital rights and digital literacy. These three terms capture epistemological and ontological frames that theorise and enact (both in policy and everyday social interactions) how in iduals learn to live in digitally mediated societies. The article explores the effectiveness of each in addressing the philosophical, ethical and practical issues raised by datafication, and the limitations of human agency as an overarching goal within these responses. We examine how each response addresses challenges in policy, everyday social life and political rhetoric, tracing the fluctuating uses of these terms and their address to different stakeholders. The article concludes with a series of conceptual and practical ‘action points’ that might optimise these responses to the benefit of the in idual and society.

Abstract: For unaccompanied refugee youth, technology occupies a central role in their lives. It helps them when crossing countries, finding a shelter, and accessing education, or even in negotiating family relations online (e.g., Çelikaksoy & Wadensjö, 2017 Marlowe & Bruns, 2020 Morrice et al., 2020). Research with young refugees shows that social media and smart devices have become essential means to resolve many challenges (Kutscher & Kreß, 2018). The aim of our article is to go beyond a utilitarian view of digital technologies and social media in the lives of migrant youth and show how digital actions can be extensions of bodily communications in relation to, for instance, locating the self within new cities, food, music, and religion. We introduce the concept of the migrant platformed body as a site of struggle for unity that brings past and present into continuous discussion in and through the uses of social media technologies.
