“We are guided by an elite that uses digital technology but not digital rationality”.
Alessandro Baricco
Public policies relating to digital tend to oscillate between carefree techno-solutionism and technophobic neo-Luddism. The result of these neurotic lurches in approach to policy, where the educational community is lectured about the dangers of technology while at the same time being thrust into the arms of large digital corporations, is that such corporations now control and monitor the vast majority of educational establishments... and, with that, the behaviour of students, teachers and families.
But in fact things can be different. In this article will explore how. To do so, we will look at a practical example: our plan, drawn up with families, on the Privacy and Democratic Digitalisation of Schools, recently accepted by the Catalan Department of Education.
