Algorithms of Education
How Datafication and Artificial Intelligence Shape Policy
by Kalervo N. GulsonSam SellarP. Taylor Webb
Exploring case studies of data infrastructures, facial recognition, and the use of data science in education, Algorithms of Education maps the political and methodological directions for engaging with datafication and artificial intelligence in education governance. According to the authors, we must go beyond debates that separate humans and machines to develop new strategies for, and a new politics of, education.
