ABSTRACT

This chapter presents a methodology for exploring the emerging dynamics of the digital governance of education (Williamson, 2016). The methodology consists in the composition of historical reconstructions, semiotic analysis and multi-sited ethnographies to elaborate cartographies of the fabrication and the use of the digital systems in the management of education systems. By drawing on Actor-Network Theory (Latour, 2005; Law, 2009), this methodology proves particularly helpful in disentangling the digital governance of education made by assemblages of people, technologies and policies.
