Any Time, Any Place, Any Way, Any Pace: Markets, EdTech, and the spaces of schooling

Abstract: For decades investors have sought to find ways of profiting off the billions of public dollars spent annually on systems of public schooling across the world.

“…In 2022, Mazari studied how EdTech interventions can exacerbate the digital divide that further compounds the disadvantage of marginalized groups. Cohen (2022) examined the implications of the growing use of profit-driven educational technologies for the politics and spatial practices of schooling in the same year. The research work of Tripathy and Devarapalli (2021) contends that EdTech firms mainly concentrate on the young minds' learning process through effective original content, live streaming video lectures through animation, and interactive simulations that help students understand topics easily and in a fun manner.…”

Further, given that education technologies are known to alter power relations within schools, shape flexible and mobile entrepreneurial subjects, and participate in processes of social reproduction (Cohen, 2022;McCreary et al, 2013), future research should examine how online learning during the pandemic impacted these transformations during and following the pandemic.…”
