arXiv: Computers and SocietyInternationalModerate confidence1 min

What changed

The research introduces a framework for understanding Digital Educational Systems (DES) by categorizing them across two fundamental dimensions: 'agency' and 'legitimacy'. These dimensions reflect how DES structurally conceptualize the learning process and are integrated into their design, impacting how learners acquire skills and knowledge.

Why it matters

Understanding the underlying conceptualization of learning within Digital Educational Systems, particularly through the lenses of agency and legitimacy, is crucial for evaluating their effectiveness and societal impact. This framework provides a basis for strategic decision-making regarding the development, adoption, and regulation of digital learning technologies.

What to watch

Digital Educational Systems (DES) serve millions globally, offering diverse learning propositions from formal degree conferral to skill acquisition.

Forward consideration, not a verified fact.
