Title
Platformed Knowledge Brokerage in Education: Power and Possibilities [Poster]
Abstract/Description
To examine some of the ways platforms facilitate knowledge brokerage within the field of education, this chapter establishes the concept of platformed knowledge brokerage and critically compares four case examples: EdArXiv, Marginal Syllabus, Teachers Pay Teachers, and What Works Clearinghouse. Analytic questions focus on who is involved in the brokerage process, the nature of the knowledge objects exchanged, the ways platforms organize knowledge, and the functions available to platform users in the brokerage process. The chapter discusses the implications these platforms have for the movement and transformation of knowledge through networks in education, highlighting questions concerning whose voices are amplified by online platforms, how, and to whom. It concludes by setting the stage for future research in this area.
