Juliane Engel is the Founding Director for Transfer of the Center for Critical Computational Studies | C3S at Goethe University Frankfurt. The newly founded center's mission is to establish and activate Critical Computational Literacy (CCL) as a transformative framework. C3S empowers students, citizens, and communities to thoughtfully relate and engage with the algorithmic and data-driven technologies in post digital times. As a Professor of Education at Goethe University, Juliane Engel is focusing on schools and cultural transformation. In systematic and empirical studies, her work examines educational processes and learning considered in the context of dynamics of social transformation, such as processes of cultural pluralization and (post-)digitality, highlighting asymmetries of power. This analysis focuses on the materiality and mediality of processes of subjectification as well as on new forms of agency in post digital realities.
