¿Quién hace la crítica de las redes? ¿Quién habla de las infraestructuras de la redes? Se pregunta Geert Lovink, uno de los teóricos del internet contemporáneos más puntuales. A diario, millones de usuarios actualizan sus timelines, actualizan fotos, documentan su bienestar o malestar y lo comparten en sus redes sociales. Somos usuarios tentados a no abandonar nunca estos espacios, aunque en el fondo reneguemos de la lógica absorbente de dichas redes. ¿Qué necesitamos para librar esta batalla con la imperante necesidad de actualizarnos o declararnos activistas en la red en épocas de flujo perpetuo ? Esa misma red que también implica lógicas de vigilancia, mercado y control. Este libro reúne una serie de ensayos telúricos que nos lleva a pensar en el trabajo, la economía, las redes organizadas, los algoritmos, la vigilancia y la urgente necesidad de construir redes sostenibles para el intercambio de ideas y que no sean no únicamente espacios marcados por los intereses de unos cuantos.

Flipping the Classroom is hot in onderwijsland, iedereen praat erover en veel docenten zijn er al mee aan de slag gegaan. Maar wat is Flipping the Classroom nu eigenlijk ? Wat is de relatie met de taxonomie van Bloom? En waar moet je allemaal aan denken als je als docent aan de slag wil met Flipping the Classroom?
In the past decades, we have faced an increase in the digitization, digitalization, and digital transformation of our work and daily life. Breakthroughs of digital technologies in fields such as artificial intelligence, telecommunications, and data science bring solutions for large societal questions but also pose a new challenge: how to equip our (future)workforce with the necessary digital skills, knowledge, and mindset to respond to and drive digital transformation?Developing and supporting our human capital is paramount and failure to do so may leave us behind on individual (digital divide), organizational (economic disadvantages), and societal level (failure in addressing grand societal challenges). Digital transformation necessitates continuous learning approaches and scaffolding of interdisciplinary collaboration and innovation practices that match complex real-world problems. Research and industry have advocated for setting up learning communities as a space in which (future) professionals of different backgrounds can work, learn, and innovate together. However, insights into how and under which circumstances learning communities contribute to accelerated learning and innovation for digital transformation are lacking. In this project, we will study 13 existing and developing learning communities that work on challenges related to digital transformation to understand their working mechanisms. We will develop a wide variety of methods and tools to support learning communities and integrate these in a Learning Communities Incubator. These insights, methods and tools will result in more effective learning communities that will eventually (a) increase the potential of human capital to innovate and (b) accelerate the innovation for digital transformation
