the Philosophy of Technology, edited by

Digital
technologies are becoming smarter, more social, more
regulatory, and we are relying more and more on their
rationality even in highly protected areas.
Postphenomenological inquiries examine the particularities of
relations between humans and technology based on the premise
that technologies mediate experience and therefore shape our
understanding of the world or open up new realms of
perception. In the course of
the last few years, digital technologies have become an
increasingly important topic in the context of education.
Postphenomenological research can make an important
contribution to this field and open up new perspectives on
teaching and learning both in and beyond the classroom.
Our
aim for the volume is to assemble interdisciplinary
contributions that shed light on digital technologies and
their meaning for educational settings from a
postphenomenological perspective. We welcome contributions on
these and related topics:
Conceptual
theoretical level: What can key concepts of
postphenomenology contribute to the discussion on digital
technologies and education?
Empirical
technological level: Which technologies, tools and
virtual (learning) environments are particularly suitable for
a postphenomenological investigation in the context of
education?
Phenomenological
in-depth level: Which technological phenomena prove to
be useful for pedagogical purposes from a postphenomenological
perspective?
