OM DENNE EPISODE
Who decides what counts as #knowledge in the age of #edtech?
In this episode of #WISEOnAir, Shahd Dauleh sits down with Dr. Taskeen Adam, whose research reveals how edtech platforms entering the Global South can carry hidden assumptions about language, pedagogy, and whose ways of knowing are legitimate.
From the purpose of education itself to Big Tech's growing influence over how the world learns, this conversation asks what it takes to build platforms that liberate rather than colonize, and why some spaces of learning may be worth protecting from technology altogether.
