I.WhatisBildung?

TheconceptofBildungisGermanandliteratelymeansimaging.Likeitissaidthat

newcomerstoget?TheconceptisworkedthroughbythinkerslikeKant,Herder,

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:

“Aboveallthings,obedienceisanessentialfeatureinthecharacterofachild,

(Larsen2013).Inthedarkagesanduptotheprintingpressandtherenaissance

andintheendalsotoHerder’sconceptofBildung.Thisconceptwasaboutlearning

andpreservationofnationsspecialhistory,cultureandlanguage.Eventhoughmany

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

(Luhmann2006:132).Withanalogueelectronicmediamanythingschangedin

Paulsen2013a).Butwiththedigitalmedianotonlytheinformationsituations

Wehaveobservedthattheschoolroomsareopenedup,meaningthatthestudents

nowcanaccesscontent,conversations,computergames,friendsetc.fromallover

theworld(throughtheInternet).Theschoolsthemselvesinvesthugesumsof

moneyinequipmentlikewirelessnetworksanddigitalblackboards.Yet,the

teachershavedifficultiesinusingthenewmediaforeducationalpurposesandtend

towardseithertoprohibitortoignoretheuseofdigitalmedia(Tække&Paulsen

2013a).Bothstrategies–prohibitionandignorancegenerallyfailsforseveral

reasons,butfirstofallbecausethenewproblemswithInternet-relateddistractions

intheclassroomcomefromalackofnorm-buildingadequatewiththenew

situationsprovidedbythenewcommunicationspaceofdigitalmedia(ibid.,

Meyrowitz1985).Atthesametimethenewpossibilitiesforteachingprovidedare

notactualisedorinvented.

Allinall,thismeansthatweseeaBildungofstudentsbelongingtoyesterday’s
