Our New Springer Book Available for Pre-Order!

We are excited to announce that our new book is now available for pre-order. Representing a Canadian-Welsh-Danish collaboration, the hanfod.NL team—Dr Mike Johnson, myself, Professor Cathy Adams, and Professor Nina Bonderup Dohn—are thrilled to share the newest edition to the Springer Research in Networked Learning Series. Alongside the opportunity to share our own contributions, our pride and joy clearly extends to a remarkable group of authors who have enriched this publication with their insights. In order of appearance in the book, this includes Dr Lucy Osler (Cardiff University), Associate Professor Kyungmee Lee (Seoul National University), Associate Professor Jean du Toit (North-West University), Associate Professor Gregory Swer (University of KwaZulu-Natal), Dr Joni Turville (Alberta Teachers’ Association), Sean Groten and Yin (Iris) Yin (University of Alberta), Professor Norm Friesen (Boise State University), and Assistant Professor Greta Goetz (Belgrade University).

An official pre-order stage is a significant and joyful milestone for us, and we look forward to sharing further updates.

The book aims to provide new insights into the field of Networked Learning, reinvigorate existing debates with new perspectives, and challenge existing understandings in research, design, and practice within the field. We adopt a primarily human-centred approach through phenomenological inquiry, particularly by investigating the interplay between humans and technology to underscore human existence in digital realms.

Phenomenology Café (pilot) in-person 12th July 15.30 Roath Park Lake Café

Arising from our workshop in May, I was delighted to meet Dr Ruan Jones (academia.edu profile, linkedin profile), fairly recently moved to Cardiff Metropolitan University (Cardiff Met) from Leeds Becket. Car trouble frustrated Ruan’s attendance at the workshop, so I was keen to make up for that. Ruan was doubly keen to meet, given his doctorate and because he’d run phenomenology workshops for years at Leeds Becket. 

To cut to the chase, we’re hoping to meet monthly and invite you to join us at the Terra Nova café (googlemaps link) for a Phenomenology Café (pilot) in-person 12th July 15.30 Roath Park Lake Café. If you want to know when we plan to meet next, please email info@hanfod.nl
