Islam, Technology, and Education

Based in a global array of case studies - Malaysia, Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, Turkey, and Islamic education in the United States - this volume shows how the discourse concerning educational technology in the Islamic world has emphasized neoliberal and neofundamentalist themes, and argues that the design and implementation of educational technologies in schools would be better accomplished by taking a culturally grounded approach. This approach would be rooted in the context and local needs of learners, with implications and possible application in the Muslim world and beyond.

Bazat pe o gama globala de studii de caz - Malaezia, Arabia Saudita, Pakistan, Turcia si educatia islamica din Statele Unite - acest volum arata modul in care discursul referitor la tehnologia educationala in lumea islamica a subliniat temele neoliberale si neofundamentaliste si sustine ca proiectarea si implementarea tehnologiilor educationale in scoli ar fi mai bine realizate prin adoptarea unei abordari fundamentate cultural.
