ICT and International Learning Ecologies
«
"Can education move beyond the heritage of neo-colonialism and neoliberalism? ICT and International Learning Ecologies offers a radical vision of educational technology for a pluralistic world that cherishes human diversity."
—Andrew Feenberg, Professor in the School of Communication at Simon Fraser University, Canada"ICT and International Learning Ecologies is like no other book that I have encountered. It shows how cutting-edge technologies can be harnessed in support of education that challenges Western hegemony and respects diversity around the world. It provides a novel vision of how education can, in turn, support cultural and environmental sustainability, building upon and learning from traditional, local, and indigenous ways of being. This is a timely contribution as the world struggles with climate change, environmental degradation, and growing inequality."

"Settler colonialism and its logic of elimination continue to impact Indigenous people and disrupt our ways of knowing, being, and doing in the world. But we are still here. Indigenous peoples remain sceptical about our cultural knowledges and how new technologies have the ability to further marginalise our lives and our collectivities. Certainly, we have little evidence to support that any form of Western intervention will be beneficial to us. ICT and International Learning Ecologies brings forward the debates around Western knowledge and ICT and Indigenous participation. This is an important contribution to the discussions on technology and learning ecologies and how we ensure a more just world where Indigenous peoples are not further exploited and marginalised."
—Bronwyn Carlson, Professor and Head of the Department of Indigenous Studies at Macquarie University, Australia
ICT and International Learning Ecologies addresses new ways to explore international, comparative, and cultural issues in education and technology. As today's development orthodoxies push societies around the world to adopt imported information communication tools, new approaches are needed that integrate cultural responsiveness, autonomy, and sustainability into technology-enhanced learning.
