This edited collection brings empirical, theoretical, and conceptual work related to learning spaces and practices that draw on the convergence of nature, humans, and the digital, in order to contribute to transformative action (that is likely) to effect change. The book asks, how can learning spaces be more convivial, equitable or sustainable, considering the challenges our world is facing? With a view to extending the reach and impact of existing postdigital scholarship, the book explores learning spaces beyond higher education. This includes learning spaces associated with cultural heritage, creative arts, refugees and displaced persons, schools, outdoor education, the city, and elsewhere.

James Lamb is a lecturer and researcher within the Centre for Research in Digital Education, and The Edinburgh Futures Institute, at the University of Edinburgh. His research and teaching particularly concern the relationship between digital technologies and learning spaces. This includes work that has explored the postdigital learning spaces of higher education, the ways that online students conceptualise the campus, mobile learning in urban settings, and how sound can shape our learning spaces. He has also written about multimodal assessment, and argued the case for sonic methods in social research. He is a co-author of the Manifesto for Teaching Online and runs the Elektronisches Lernen Muzik project, which explores the relationship between music and learning.   Lucila Carvalho is an associate professor at the Institute of Education, Massey University (Auckland), New Zealand, and co-director of the Equity Through Education Research Centre. Lucila’s research interests are at the intersection of sociology, design, digital technologies and learning. Her research explores how knowledge and social structures shape the design and use of technology, and the web of elements – tasks, people, digital and material tools – that come together to influence social and educational experiences. Lucila co-edited the books: Place-based Spaces for Networked Learning (with Peter Goodyear and Maarten de Laat, Routledge, 2017) and The Architecture of Productive Learning Networks (with Peter Goodyear, Routledge, 2014).  

Reviews for Postdigital Learning Spaces: Towards Convivial, Equitable, and Sustainable Spaces for Learning

“This book is a rich resource for teachers, educational technology specialists, educational designers, students, and researchers who want to learn more about postdigital spaces, the possibilities they offer, and most importantly, how to think about such spaces to make them more convivial, equitable, and sustainable. … For researchers the book also offers a broad range of postdigital research methods, often transdisciplinary, innovative, and collaborative.” (Henrietta Carbonel, Postdigital Science and Education, Vol. 6 (4), 2024)
