“Education has no end”: reconciling past and future through reforms in the education system
No full textEducation in flux: Studies on time, forms and reform
No full textOver the last decennia, both education and policy-making have undergone radical changes, transcending them far beyond the historical limits of the modern nation-state where their contemporary shape originated. The often-discussed shift from government to governance in education policy, together with the crystallization of newly emerging spaces of transnational education, are illustrative in this respect. The national grammar of schooling is set out to arrange time in class hours, schooldays and yearly cohorts. Its curricula establish what the past should teach to future generations. But when education shifts perspectives towards transnational, European or even global levels, this past increasingly seems to lose relevance when understood as continuity, as tradition. Instead, in education as in policy-making, the discontinuity expected to result from a future deemed open and undetermined becomes an endless resource for the development of new political and educational (re)forms. How are contemporary education and education policy creating and reacting to particular forms of presents, pasts or futures? How do specific forms of education (such as lifelong learning) relate to our shifting understandings of time? How are progress, acceleration and time related in educational reform processes? Through showing the contingency of the involved time-making, the contributions to this book seek to answer these questions and thus open avenues to think education and time anew

Diagrams of Europeanization: European education governance in the digital age
No full textEuropean education governance is increasingly affected by and effectuated through digital means. This article presents an analysis of the way in which Europe is increasingly deploying digital technologies, and more specifically websites, in order to shape and communicate its education policies. Drawing on the notion of the diagram as the multimodal combination of texts and visuals into a single plane, the article scrutinizes two websites that play a central role in the production and distribution of policy data: first, the European Commission’s Directorate Education and Culture website presenting the Education and Training monitor; second, the Open Education Europa website stimulating the deployment of Open Education practices in Europe. Conceived as active devices, various diagrams on these websites are analyzed in view of the operations they perform. It is argued that these diagrams portray related interplays of absence and presence, enact specific spaces into being, and call for specific ways of taking action upon the reality they purport to represent. As such, diagrams have become an integral part of European education governance in the digital age.status: Publishe

No full textMathias Decuypere, Emiliano Grimaldi & Paolo Landri (2021) Critical Studies in Education 62(1), pp. 1-16. Extract. “Investments in forms Fourth, and as an overarching feature encompassing the previous three, it can be generally argued that digital platforms ‘consider a broad range of phenomena that structure attention, shape decision making and guide cognition’ (Bowker et al., 2019: p. 1). However, such phenomena are not naturally there, but need a significant amount of investment in o..
