"This excellent collection, Learning to Live with Datafication: Educational Case Studies and Initiatives from Across the World, emphasizes the necessity of research that focuses on situated effects, uses, and interpretations of data-driven technologies in education. It asks important questions about the experiences of living, teaching and learning in datafied systems, how datafication might evolve in the future, what should be done about it, and calls for informed critical discussion about how teaching and learning might be strengthened by datafication."Professor Ben Williamson, Chancellor’s Fellow at the Centre for Research in Digital Education, University of Edinburgh, UK
