Digital wayfaring: post-human knowledge practices in higher education
This seminar by Professor Lesley Gourlay has been rescheduled to 10 June 2020.

In this seminar, Professor Lesley Gourlay will present a post-humanist reading of digital literacies which centres on embodiment, materiality, mobilities, and spatiality into our understanding of emergent digital knowledge practices.
Mainstream education tends to portray digital technologies and devices either as inert tools at the fingertips of a neoliberal student or as a force to be feared and therefore harnessed.
Professor Gourlay will argue that both of these views are problematic and inaccurate. Leading to a collapse into utopian/dystopian binaries and fantasies around digital magic and the disembodied user.
