Education as Polis – Reclaiming the Public Dimension of Learning


What if we treated education as a public practice that builds a shared world, rather than reducing it to skills, metrics, or efficiency?

In my latest blog post I explore the idea of education as polis. This perspective sees learning as a collective act of world making, where classrooms, courses, and digital spaces can nurture the common good.

I develop these ideas further here:

How can we reclaim digital learning spaces so they truly serve the public good? What practices or examples have you seen that embody this vision?
