Although emerging technologies are becoming popularised for teaching, learning and research, the relationship between their use and transformative effects on higher education remain largely unexplored. This edited collection seeks to fill this gap by providing a nuanced view, locating higher education pedagogical practices at an intersection of emerging technologies, authentic learning and activity systems. Providing numerous case studies as examples, the book draws from a wide range of contexts to illustrate how such a convergence has the potential to track transformative teaching and learning practices in the higher education sector. Chapters provide the reader with a variety of transformative higher education pedagogical practices in southern contexts, theorised within the framework of Cultural Historical Activity Theory (CHAT) and tool mediation, while using authentic learning as a pedagogical model upon which this theoretical framework is based. The topics covered in the book have global relevance, with research paying particular attention to South Africa, Australia and New Zealand, where the authors are based. The book will be of interest to educators, researchers and practitioners in higher education, as well as those interested in emerging technologies in education more generally.

This book investigates pedagogical change across curricula and political transitions in the South African context, from 1994 to today. Tracing pedagogical transitions from post-apartheid to the demands of the 21st century, the book seeks to develop a novel approach to pedagogy that can meet the needs of students today. Adopting a cultural-historical lens, Hardman analyses the contradictions that arise due to transitions in the curriculum and describes the current state of teaching in primary schools in South Africa by focusing on how teachers teach scientific concepts. She goes on to examine the transitions from children’s indigenous science/maths understanding to school science/maths understanding, developing a pedagogy that can transform the learning of mathematics and science in developing contexts. Building on theories from Vygotsky, Davydov, Feuerstein, Freire, Bruner and Hedegaard, Hardman develops a new and inclusive, decolonial pedagogical approach that can meet the needs of a multicultural and multilingual contexts around the world.

This work addresses the critical role contradictions play in shaping educational experiences with a particular focus on STEM education and the integration of digital technologies. The book focuses on the historical evolution of Cultural-Historical Activity Theory (CHAT) and its emphasis on contradictions emerging from the work of Soviet scholars in the early to mid-20th century, notably Lev Vygotsky, who laid the groundwork, and later Alexei Leontiev and Yrjö Engeström, who expanded upon it. It examines how contradictions, rather than being solely seen as disruptive, can be transformative forces that educators can harness to improve teaching and learning. Special attention is given to the tensions between traditional educational practices and the evolving demands of technology-driven learning environments, highlighting how these contradictions impact both educators and students.Drawing on a wide range of theoretical knowledge of contradictions and research projects, this book provides multiple perspectives on contradictions in education. It examines how different elements of the educational system—such as students, teachers, technology, and institutional policies—interact to create tensions that are central to educational development. The book includes detailed case studies, as well as analyses of broader educational trends, offering valuable insights for practitioners, policymakers, and researchers alike, who seek to work with the dynamic, transformative nature of contradictions. Whether you are working in education or conducting research in this field, this book provides a fresh perspective on how contradictions can serve as opportunities for growth and advancement in the classroom and beyond.
