What We Leave Behind in TEL: The Silence Around Critical Pedagogy


In much of the UK's digital education research, there's a strong focus on scalability, platform integration, and institutional alignment.

What's often missing?

- Critical pedagogy
- Questions of power, justice, and values
- Grounded reflections on why we teach the way we do

In this blog post, I explore why those deeper questions are often absent -- and what we might do about it.

I'd really welcome others' thoughts: are you seeing the same emphasis where you work?

I hope Felon47 is taking note of these crowds. If so, it has got to be eating away at him!


Me & Māra are doing a lot of nature & wildlife protection and conservation work, and need some financial support. This week we participated in 2 actions, the first one was dolphin research expedition in France, 2nd habitat restoration for birds in Slovenia.
We have a Patreon page where we share our updates, plans, ideas, behind the scenes and other information. Anyone can support us there starting just from 5 euro per month. And we always produce short documentaries about the work we did, and about amazing project and organizations we are joining.
If you think that what we do is important please support us there.

The Signal Has Gone Live: Welcome to Wish Green


The signal is live.
Just arrived in the Fediverse to start building something deeper.
I’m a conscious creator sharing thoughts, frequencies, questions, and real human upgrades.

This is #WishGreen 🌱
A flow, a project, a perspective shift.

If you think in layers, speak in symbols, or feel reality cracking—let’s connect.

Hello Fediverse!


I'm Stephen Wheeler, an eLearning Technologist at The University of Manchester. My work focuses on online and distance learning, including MOOCs, OERs, and student-centred design rooted in critical pedagogy. I advocate for Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) and ethical, decentralised platforms that support authentic engagement and inclusive education.

I'm here to connect with fellow educators, technologists, and open education advocates, and to explore how platforms like Friendica can support collaborative, non-commercial educational spaces.

Looking forward to meaningful conversations across the Fediverse!

Here we stayed in a very nice free motorhome parking area in a mountain village called Cirat. Cirat has hiking trails, waterfalls and many beautiful lookouts (and also some microscopic creatures that we could observe through our microscope 😁)

We spent 4 days in this spot and found a micromonster


Cirat was such a wonderful place to be in. Close to the mountains and having access to all facilities we needed, made us stay there for 4 days. We just did not want to leave....
