Opis

Student Experiences in the Digital University challenges mainstream conceptions and assumptions about students' engagement with digital resources in higher education. The book's thesis is that students' experiences in the digital university cannot be reduced either to transferable skills or typological categories, but must be understood as embodied, socially situated and taking place in complex networks involving human and non-human actors. A series of chapters incorporating empirical data from a JISC-funded project on digital literacies concludes with far-reaching implications for research, policy and practice.
