Kergel, D. (2021). Digital Learning in Motion – From Book Culture to the Digital Age. London: Routledge.
This book seeks to interpret our understanding of “learning” as a construct mediated by the ways in which knowledge is presented (the medium is the message). The book explores the relationship between learning and motion. The “big idea” is to consider how learning is based on motion, generated by new experiences and changes with the environment and through access to media, information, community and sharing. The book presents a normative model that outlines how learning can be structured on the basis of society’s values and self-understanding discourse in the digital age. It also explores how fluid access to content changes “learning” and the relationship between learners, teachers and knowledge.
