Vienna, Austria, 10-14 July 2016. Jesper Tække Associate Professor, PhD Centre for Internet Research, Aarhus University, Denmark : www.jespertaekke.dk [email protected] Twitter: @taekke Michael Paulsen Associate Professor, PhD Department for the study of culture The University of Southern Denmark www.michaelpaulsen.dk [email protected] Twitter: @forskerMP We are living in a period where new social structures arise in the communicative space and wake of digital media. This means that we must try to adapt to a changing social world within all social arenas like economy, work-life, love relations and last but not least education. The question of this paper is what Bildung should be or could be within this new medium environment. It draws on Luhmann (2006), Biesta (2006), Klafki (2014) and Kant (1784) describing what Bildung is seen from the view of the enlightenment tradition and try to discuss and analyze how ideas of Bildung could be used in education today and tomorrow. The paper draws on empirical findings from the Socio Media Education experiment, a Danish action research project in an upper secondary school from 2011-214 (Tække & Paulsen 2013a, 2015a, 2016a, 2016b).

I.WhatisBildung?

TheconceptofBildungisGermanandliteratelymeansimaging.Likeitissaidthat

Humboldt,HegelandSchleiermacherduringthetimeofenlightenment(Klafki

2014).FollowingLuhmann(2006)Bildungisaparadoxicalconcept,whichwesee

rightfromthebeginningofthetimeofenlightenmentwhereKantisansweringthe

question,whatenlightenmentis:“Enlightenmentisman’semergencefromhisself-

imposedimmaturity.Immaturityistheinabilitytouseone’sunderstandingwithout

opinionthattheabilitytothinkfreelyandforhimselfistheproductofeducation.He

didnotonlysaythat:“Manistheonlybeingwhoneedseducation”(Kant1803,#1),

butalsothat:“Disciplinechangesanimalnatureintohumannature”(#3)andthat:

IV.Theproblem

Thingsaremovingfastinsocietywhereallparts,sectorsandlevelsarealteringand

changinginaccordancewithnewdigitalcommunicationmedia.Notatleastthe

productionformsarechangingfromtheformdevelopedintheepochof

industrialisationwithasharpdistinctionbetweenproduction,distributionand

consummation.Nowweseeacontractioncalledprodusage(Bruns2008).Wealsose

newformsofnetworking,intercreativity(ibid),spreadingofcontentandformsof

convergenceandparticipationculturescharacterisedbyshaping,sharing,

reframing,remixingandappropriation(Jenkins2013,2008,2006).Wearelivingin

InhisbookNoSenseofPlaceMeyrowitzshowshowanaloguemediachangedthe

Theschoolhasforcenturiesbeenbasedasasocialsystemthatprocessesinaclosed

Wehaveobservedthattheschoolroomsareopenedup,meaningthatthestudents

nowcanaccesscontent,conversations,computergames,friendsetc.fromallover

theworld(throughtheInternet).Theschoolsthemselvesinvesthugesumsof

moneyinequipmentlikewirelessnetworksanddigitalblackboards.Yet,the

teachershavedifficultiesinusingthenewmediaforeducationalpurposesandtend

towardseithertoprohibitortoignoretheuseofdigitalmedia(Tække&Paulsen

reasons,butfirstofallbecausethenewproblemswithInternet-relateddistractions

intheclassroomcomefromalackofnorm-buildingadequatewiththenew

situationsprovidedbythenewcommunicationspaceofdigitalmedia(ibid.,

Meyrowitz1985).Atthesametimethenewpossibilitiesforteachingprovidedare
