Caroline Kuhn
(Session Chair: Pathways to Opening Up Education - Tues 14:00)
Caroline has a PhD in Education and she is a Senior Lecturer in Education and Technology Enhanced Learning at the School of Education. She has a particular interest in open education and social justice framed under a critical pedagogy approach.
Her research focus lies on the intersection of sociology, philosophy, technology and education. She is interested in how technology-driven solutions can be meaningfully integrated into development contexts so that different ways of knowing and beings are respected. This interest stems from her doctoral research, where she examined students’ daily entanglement with digital tools and platforms, particularly open and participatory ones at university. She is particularly interested in the interplay between culture, structure and agency from a critical realist perspective. Her latest research project has been together with a team of 3 co-researchers designing and implementing an OER that fosters critical data literacy.
