The future of education in today's revolutionary digital world

Wikiworld explores a revolution in the world of education. The way we learn is changing: institutionalised learning is transforming into new forms of critical learning and open collaboration. This book offers a historical and political framework to think about the future of learning and educational media.

The authors provide an overview of the use of new technologies and learning practices, and assess how the changing nature of education can lead to a more socially just future. At the same time, they place their analysis of education within a wider social and economic framework of contemporary capitalism.

Juha Suoranta is a Finnish social scientist, and public intellectual and Professor of Adult Education at the University of Tampere, Finland. He is the author of Wikiworld (Pluto, 2009). Tere Vaden is Adjunct Professor in Hypermedia and Philosophy at the University of Tampere, Finland. He is the author of Wikiworld (Pluto, 2009).
