Technonationalism: exploring the role of digital education technologies

This March our Department of Education are hosting a talk by Professor Nelli Piattoeva about Technonationalism: exploring the role of digital education technologies in (re)constructing the national imagined community

Nelli Piattoeva is Professor (sociology of education) at Tampere University, Finland. Her research focuses on the changing means of the governance of schooling (e.g., datafication) and on the role of formal education in societal governance (e.g., schools as sites of nation building). She is co-director of the Laboratory of International Assessment Studies. At Tampere University she leads an interdisciplinary Research Centre on Transnationalism and Transformation (TRANSIT)

All are welcomed!
