Who gets to be ‘screen free’? Exploring a disconnection divide in U.S. public and private K-12 schools during the Covid-19 pandemic
This study explores a divergence in discourses about, and institutional approaches to, digital technology use in public and private K-12 schools in the United States. Offering a critical thematic analysis of the technology mission statements published on the websites of urban Waldorf schools and neighboring public schools in six U.S. cities during the Covid-19 pandemic, we show how public schools described digital technologies as essential to stu…
Towards global and local histories of educational technologies
This introduction summarises the objectives and themes of a special issue that highlights global-local interdependencies in the history of educational technologies.It suggests that discussions of the development, diffusion, and use of technologies of teaching and learning around the world could benefit from a broadening of the definition of educational technologies, a diversification of research materials and practices, and a focus on underrepres…
Bring the World to the Child
How, long before the advent of computers and the internet, educators used technology to help students become media-literate, future-ready, and world-minded citizens. Today, educators, technology leaders, and policy makers promote the importance of “global,” “wired,” and “multimodal” learning; efforts to teach young people to become engaged global citizens and skilled users of media often go hand in hand. But the use of technology to bring student…
The Media History Digital Library
Media history is a growing subfield within both history and media studies scholarship. In a rapidly changing digital culture that emphasizes novelty, scholars in both of these disciplines have highlighted the importance of engaging diverse histories of media from the analog age. A valuable resource in this effort is the Media History Digital Library (Mhdl), an extensive, open-access collection of fully digitized and searchable trade publications,…
Sight-Seeing in School
This article argues that the influx of media technologies into schools between 1900 and 1930 was facilitated by an emergent techno-utopian rhetoric in American culture that placed new social value on the acquisition of virtual and worldly experience. Against a backdrop of rising immigration, global visual culture, and American intervention in foreign affairs, the burgeoning educational technology industry-including producers of stereographs, slid…
Making do with media
In the last century, teachers have come under pressure to incorporate new media technologies into their lessons. Comparing educational research, press coverage, and teachers' firsthand accounts of mediated instruction between 1919 and 1946, this article highlights a historic discrepancy between anticipated and actual uses of media in classrooms. Drawing on de Certeau's theory of “making do,” the author argues that teachers' efforts to balance hig…
Listening to Pictures
This article revisits the early twentieth century as an overlooked period of media mixing and technological convergence in newspapers. Comparing a short-lived audiovisual form of journalism—the Radio Photologues of the Chicago Daily News—with contemporary audio slideshows produced by online newspapers, it argues that newspapers have long been meeting grounds for experimental combinations of existing and emerging media. It calls for a broader hist…

Why we travel
Travel journalism provides unique insights into changing notions of culture, media, and mobility. This study examines ‘Why we travel,’ a New York Times collection of over 2000 reader-submitted photos and captions about travel. To locate trends within this multi-authored text, the author refers to the theories of tourism scholars MacCannell and Urry to distinguish between enduring and emergent travel representations. The former include unequal dis…
From scrapbook to Facebook
This study surveys recent research on print-era scrapbooks and contemporary social media to highlight commonalities between the two formats, both in terms of the practices they have historically promoted for users, and the methodological challenges they produce for researchers. It argues that scrapbooks and social media can be conceptualized as sites of personal media assemblage and personal media archives, a designation that highlights the simul…
