Those of us studying edtech platforms and infrastructures in education talk a bit about vendor "lock-ins" - how schools can't get out of a platform once they're on it. This is a magnificent paper about that by @lucascone.bsky.social and Signe Sophus Lai www.tandfonline.com/doi/pdf/10.1...

I recently talked to @politiken.dk about infrastructural dependency in education and why we need to talk more about ownership and structural monopolies and less about concerns over individual data. Check it out here👇 or read the paper I wrote with Signe Sophus Lai on the topic (link in comment)
Velkommen i Google-klassen: »Vi er nødt til at genoverveje, om amerikanske techgiganter virkelig er den bedste løsning«

#Gaza has become a "mass grave." Palestinians and humanitarian workers are enduring extreme suffering as Israeli forces escalate their offensive.

We urge Israeli authorities to end the siege on Gaza, protect Palestinians, humanitarian and medical staff and uphold the ceasefire.

Had the pleasure of talking with @neilselwyn.bsky.social about some of my research - you can hear the result wherever you listen to podcasts 👇
