Comprising theoretical and practice-based components, Digital Sociology of Education will introduce students to how new technologies can be used to inquire into and understand social issues in educational technology contexts. Concerned with the critical study of teaching and learning using technology, students will explore debates in the sociology and anthropology of education, traditional social research methods, and digital sociology and anthropology.
The module will focus on two primary dimensions of digital sociology: 1) digital data collection and analysis and 2) analysis of digital use. Students will be encouraged to develop and use innovative methodological practices to carry out educational technology research.
