Abstract
Education has long been a sector in which images of the future, particularly of technologically enhanced futures, have been used to make promises about transformation and change. In this paper, we share our early thinking about how sociodigital futures of learning are being envisaged and made.
We look at four key areas of education in which a set of sociodigital claims about the future are becoming dominant: automating learning; interoperable learning; immersive learning; biological learning. We outline our current assumptions, the literature that claims are based upon, and the ethical questions and research that we think will follow.
Finally, we raise a number of questions which we believe require attention, relating to ownership, authorship and access, privacy and dignity, sustainability and humanity. These will form the foundation of our future research on sociodigital futures of learning.
