This document discusses themes around inequalities in digital/cultural/social capital and educational equity. It outlines that educational equity aims for fairness in education and accommodating individual needs, rather than just equality. There will be a discussion on whether access to cultural resources is a democratic right and if cultural resources are appropriated through educational functions. Several people will give 5 minute overviews on related issues and there will be opportunities for debate on questions around new inequalities created by digital practices in education and how educators can promote more equal access.
This document provides an overview and outline of topics to be discussed at the Future Trends in Technology and Education forum. The forum will examine trends in education, technology, and how technology is being used in education. Specific topics to be covered include changes in international education, issues around race and sexual assault on campuses, emerging technologies like augmented reality and 3D printing, the growth of MOOCs and online learning, and debates around whether the higher education system faces a looming crisis or bubble. The document lists presenters and sources for further information.
