Description

Decolonizing the Digital Space: Culturally Sustaining Practices in Online and Hybrid Learning Environments examines how digital education can embrace technological innovation without marginalising culture, identity, Indigenous knowledge, language, and community values. As online, hybrid, and AI-enabled learning continue to reshape education, this book challenges one-size-fits-all digital models and calls for learning environments that respect diverse ways of knowing, learning, and belonging. It advocates culturally sustaining, inclusive, and human-centred approaches in which technology strengthens rather than replaces local knowledge and cultural identity, ensuring that the digital future of education is shaped not only by technology, but also by the voices, values, and knowledge of the communities it serves.
