• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Addressing a persistent gap in higher education and educational technology research, where digital technology is rarely subject to an appropriately critical approach, Degrees of Digitization' offers an alternative reading of the social, political, economic and cultural issues surrounding universities and technology. It highlights emerging themes that are beginning to be recognised and discussed in academia, but as yet have not been explored thoroughly.
