Exploring What is Lost in the Online Undergraduate Experience A Philosophical Inquiry into the Meaning of Remote Learning

Exploring What is Lost in the Online Undergraduate Experience A Philosophical Inquiry into the Meaning of Remote Learning

This book examines the significance and meaning of undergraduate online learning using a hermeneutic phenomenological study asking what is lost when there is no face-to-face contact and exploring the essence of technology itself. Drawing on data from undergraduate students across various higher education institutions including both interview recordings and written reports of their lived experiences the author seeks to uncover the essence of the phenomenon by engaging with themes around the philosophy of technology and the purpose of post-secondary education using Heidegger’s essay The Question Concerning Technology as a crucial interpretive lens. Rather than offering generalized conclusions it presents a basis for further understanding of the experience of online learning and ultimately asks whether the efficiency afforded to undergraduates by online classes or degrees can ever replace what is learned in a classroom with other people. Providing a novel approach to the topic of online learning which centers the concept of experience and drawing links to current conditions and pedagogy in online higher education it will appeal to scholars working across education and philosophy with interests in higher education technology and education phenomenology of education and philosophy of education. | Exploring What is Lost in the Online Undergraduate Experience A Philosophical Inquiry into the Meaning of Remote Learning

The Dark Social Online Practices of Resistance Motility and Power

The Dark Social Online Practices of Resistance Motility and Power

This book explores how people interact online through anonymous communication in encrypted hidden or otherwise obscured online spaces. Beyond the Dark Web itself this book examines how the concept of ‘dark social’ broadens the possibilities for examining notions of darkness and sociality in the age of digitality and datafied life. The authors take into account technical moral ethical and pragmatic responses to ourselves and communities seeking to be/belong in/of/ the dark. Scholarship on the Darknet and Dark Social Spaces tends to focus on the uses of encryption and other privacy-enhancing technologies to engender resistance acts. Such understandings of the dark social are naturally in tension with social and political theories which argue that for politics and ‘acts’ to matter they must appear in the public light. They are also in tension with popular narratives of the ‘dark recesses of the web’ which are disparaged by structural powers who seek to keep their subjects knowable and locatable on the clear web. The binary of dark versus light is challenged in this book. The authors’ provocation is that practices of ‘dark’ resistance motility and power are enacted by emerging data cultures. This book draws together scholarship activism and creativity to push past conceptual binary positions and create new approaches to darknet and dark social studies. The Dark Social: Online Practices of Resistance Motility and Power will be a key resource for academics researchers and advanced students of media studies cultural studies communication studies research methods and sociology. This book was originally published as a special issue of Continuum: Journal of Media & Cultural Studies. | The Dark Social Online Practices of Resistance Motility and Power

The Link between Specific Forms of Online and Offline Victimization A Collaboration Between the ASC Division of Victimology and Division of

This book features the empirical work of internationally known scholars providing an in-depth examination of the overlap between online and offline victimization and offending. The vast expanse of the Internet has provided a limitless playground for offenders to prey on those unaware of their predators or well as those who are intimately familiar with their offenders. However the Internet does not isolate offenders into mutually exclusive categories. Instead it has allowed many offenders to use both offline and online platforms to commit crime. It also opened up more opportunity for violation of victims. This volume features two divisions of the American Society of Criminology the Division of Victimology and Division of Cybercrime who have joined forces to sponsor a special issue on the overlap between forms of online and offline victimization and offending. International scholars in this book provide a notable spectrum of different forms of this phenomenon as well as predictors of these behaviors. The Link between Specific Forms of Online and Offline Victimization will be a key resource for academics researchers and advanced students of Victimology Cybercime Criminology and Criminal Justice.

Big Data and Competition Law Market Power Assessment in the Data-Driven Economy

Big Data and Competition Law Market Power Assessment in the Data-Driven Economy

Recent studies on competition law and digital markets reveal that accumulating personal information through data collection and acquisition methods benefits consumers considerably. Free of charge fast and personalised services and products are offered to consumers online. Collected data is now an indispensable part of online businesses to the point that a new economy a data-driven sector has emerged. Many markets such as the social network search engine online advertising and e-commerce are regarded as data-driven markets in which the utilisation of Big Data is a requisite for the success of operations. However the accumulation and use of data brings competition law concerns as they contribute to market power in the online world resulting in a few technology giants gaining unprecedented market power due to the Big Data accumulation indirect network effects and the creation of online ecosystems. As technology giants have billions of consumers worldwide data-driven markets are truly global. In these data-driven markets technology giants abuse their dominant positions but existing competition law tools seem ineffective in addressing market power and assessing abusive behaviour related to Big Data. This book argues that a novel approach to the data-driven sector must be developed through the application of competition law rules to address this. It argues that current and potential conflicts can be mitigated by extending the competition law assessment beyond the current competition law tools to offer a modernised and unified approach to the Big Data–related competition issues. Promoting new legal tests for addressing the market power of technology giants and assessing abusive behaviour in data-driven markets this book advocates for cooperation between competition and data protection authorities. It will be of interest to students academics and practitioners with an interest in competition law and data protection. | Big Data and Competition Law Market Power Assessment in the Data-Driven Economy
