Educational researchers Prof. Dr. Sandra Hofhues and Prof. Dr. Julia Schütz, from FernUniversität in Hagen, have published a book titled 'Plattformen für Bildung' exploring the impact of digital platforms on education. The study, part of the 'Bildungsraum Digital' (BIRD) project, examines the creation of these platforms and their effects on learning and educational institutions. The book is published by transcript Verlag and can be found at https://www.transcript-verlag.de/978-3-8376-7516-0/plattformen-fuer-bildung/?number=978-3-8394-7516-4.
The research team faced challenges in protecting data and ensuring anonymity during their study. Despite these hurdles, they successfully explored the process of developing digital platforms and the people involved. The topic of digital platforms in education has garnered significant public interest. The book 'Plattformen für Bildung' is set to be released in January 2025, with no information yet on its authors.
The book 'Plattformen für Bildung' offers insights into the platformization of the education system and its impact on learning and educational institutions. Press inquiries can be directed to Carolin Annemueller, press officer at FernUniversität in Hagen.
