While the past20 years have seen a substantial increase in the presence of digital technology in schools anduniversities, the much-promised technology-led transformation of the processes and prac-tices of education have failed to materialise into tangible benefits (Selwyn 2016).
I agree with this statement, and I think one major reason is that too many classrooms still rely on the sit-and-get model of instruction. Even when technology is present, it often gets layered onto passive learning instead of reshaping pedagogy. If students are still expected to consume information without active engagement, collaboration, or creation, the potential of digital tools will always fall short. True transformation requires moving beyond “sit-and-get” toward designs that empower students as active learners.
