Posthumanism and the Massive Open Online Course : Contaminating the Subject of Global Education EPUB
by Jeremy (University of Edinburgh, UK) Knox
EPUB
Description
Posthumanism and the Massive Open Online Course critiques the problematic reliance on humanism that pervades online education and the MOOC, and explores theoretical frameworks that look beyond these limitations.
While MOOCs (massive open online courses) have attracted significant academic and media attention, critical analyses of their development have been rare.
Following an overview of MOOCs and their corporate means of promotion, this book unravels the tendencies in research and theory that continue to adopt normative views of user access, participation, and educational space in order to offer alternatives to the dominant understandings of community and authenticity in education.
