Prototyping an Edtech Assessment Toolkit
New forms of facial recognition, aggression detection systems, bus routing optimization software, generative AI detection, and online exam proctoring: the edtech industry is rapidly increasing its influence over schools and universities by introducing new AI-powered products and services. As the ubiquity and complexity of AI systems intensifies, deliberation among practitioners about immediate and long-term risks is becoming ever more challenging…
Education Prototyping
The potential of applying a ‘technical democracy’ (Callon et al. 2009) to the context of sociotechnical controversies in education is the focus of this paper. This process reflects an emergent 'thought collective' (Fleck 1979) whose common interests, yet diverse expertise, are articulated through provisional objects and infrastructure for collective and experimental knowledge production. The technique of ‘prototyping’ was then deployed for a desi…
Socio-technically just pedagogies
The COVID-19 pandemic sparked an unprecedented expansion of educational technologies and digitisation of the university sector, and also amplified existing inequalities and crises. In this paper, we introduce the ‘socio-technically just pedagogies framework’ to systemically explore curriculum-making, student-staff partnerships, knowledge production, and networked capabilities in higher education. This conceptual innovation seeks to (re)articulate…
School Choice Algorithms
Automated decision-making is a process in which an algorithm collects and analyses data, derives information, applies this information, and recommends an action, at times using forms of Artificial Intelligence (Richardson 2021). This paper proposes that we need to locate automated decision-making as part of the history of educational policy and governance, as well as increasingly networked cultural records or digital archives. As such, we explore…
Responding to sociotechnical controversies in education
The use of automated decision-making systems is increasing in education. While the potential impacts of ADM are becoming widely known amongst experts, the perspectives of those impacted by ADM remain peripheral. To broaden expertise and participation, this paper proposes that ADM needs to be considered as a sociotechnical controversy, as part of a technical democracy approach that utilises hybrid forums. Following Callon and colleagues, in this p…
Pedagogic encounters with algorithmic system controversies
There is a broad impetus across policy and institutional domains to expand public engagement and involvement with emerging technology research and innovation. Yet innovative theory, methods, and practices to critically explore algorithmic system controversies and democratic possibilities are still in nascent form. In this paper, we bring together thinking about public pedagogy, infrastructuring, and democratic design to introduce a novel pedagogi…
Instituting socio-technical education futures
A (re)composition of encountered problems and possibilitiesArtificial intelligence, automation, algorithms, and datafication are increasingly instituted across educational systems and decision-making, including generative AI, student monitoring, exam grading, data analytics.The public release of ChatGPT raised stark issues of corporate infrastructuring, the politics and scientization of automation, conflicts over ethics, and the possibility of ho…
Guiding, sustaining and growing the public involvement of young people in an adolescent health research community of practice
BACKGROUND: Public involvement in health research and its translation is well recognized to improve health interventions. However, this approach is insufficiently practised and evidenced in relation to young people. This paper presents an analysis of the process of co-producing a framework, partnership model and a growing network of young people informing and guiding an adolescent health research community of practice. METHODS: A Living Lab is a …

Surviving Supergentrification in Inner City Sydney
Artists and creative workers have long been recognized as playing an important role in gentrification, being often portrayed as forerunners of urban change and displacement in former industrial and working-class suburbs of 'post-Fordist' cities. However, as is well represented by recent research, the relationship between the arts, gentrification and displacement has been called into question. The purpose of this article, which draws on 30 case st…
Children's data journeys beyond the 'supply chain
This article explores the flows and frictions of children's data in the digital age, and how datafication becomes another way of knowing and governing children. There is an urgent need to better understand such digital orientations, who controls them, and how children's agency becomes enabled and constrained. In this article, we argue that a child rights framework operates to surface the tensions and stumbling blocks at play in the ostensibly sea…
Assemblages of altruism in urban service delivery
Lack of access to services is one of the chief difficulties faced by marginalized urban communities. The proximity of digital technologies and data promises to remove a key constraint to greater access: the unequal distribution of information. However, issues of digital literacy and affordability and the local specificity of services make opportunities for achieving well-being both a technical and ethical concern. We discuss 2 community-based pro…
Academic Publishing and its Digital Binds
In this article we explore various constraints and potentials of academic publishing in the digital age. Advancement of digital platforms and their expansive reach amplify the underlying tensions of institutional and scholarly change. A key affordance of these platforms is that of speed: rapidly distributing the outputs of a precaritised profession and responding to pressures to publish as well as the profit motive of publishers. On the one hand,…
The labour of communicating publics
Kolorob is a participatory platform connecting informal settlement communities with services and informal jobs in Dhaka, Bangladesh. Alongside technological systems, expertise from community, non-government, private-sector, volunteer and academic fields has been integral to the platform’s development. These socio-technical connections and networks, manifest through participatory design, agile software development and collaborative knowledge pract…
Platforms, data and children’s rights
In this article, we consider the role of digital platforms for producing data and shaping how children’s rights are understood, monitored and advocated for. We present a typology of platforms impacting children’s rights, followed by the introduction of a ‘networked capability approach’. A case study is used to explore the potential of this approach for examining the purpose, practices and repercussions of digital platforms. We argue that to recog…
Cultural making’
There is an increasing adoption of large-scale, multisectoral collaborations which draw upon diverse expertise and innovative processes to tackle complex issues. How social change emerges through such transdisciplinary research alliances is the focus of our paper. Yet, broader participation and openness to uncertainty exacerbates issues of multidimensional power and complexity which continually shape and reshape practices. In this article, we int…
From products to publics? The potential of participatory design for research on youth, safety and well-being
This paper considers how ‘participation’ features as a key concept in contemporary approaches to research, policy and interventions to promote young people's experiences of safety and well-being in digital society. In particular, it examines the potential of participatory design (PD) methodology as a way of expressing, surfacing and supporting engagement with youth perspectives in research and design projects. In doing so, we explore how the lang…
