Digital technologies arein no way opposed to learning as a worlding practice. On thecontrary, they can be quite powerful in expanding learningprocesses in various contexts. However, as Ralf Lankau pointsout: “Nobody learns digitally” (2017, p. 10). Learning is not amechanical procedure of digital machines but a world-disclosingactivity of living subjects. Thus, the question arises about thesignificance of digital devices for the activity of learning and towhat extent they are relevant for the development of the differentelements and movements of the act of learning including theformation of human agency and contextual thinking. In thenext chapter, I will analyze the specific characteristics of digitaltechnologies and the accompanying transformations in thepractice of learning.
It seems possible that the arguments made against digital technologies for learning could also be made for any other human technology. Perhaps the underlying argument is that learning exists in the relation itself between the subject at hand and the learner. in that case, " nobody learns technologically". The point that seems to be made is that a digital technology for world making and learning needs to promote the relations themselves between the learner and the text. It could be argued that this is a quality of semantic tools.
