Abstract

The text discusses the importance of decolonising educational technology to address colonial biases and power imbalances in modern educational practices. Authors from diverse perspectives explore how technology can perpetuate biases and privilege certain knowledge systems. The Special Issue aims to uncover biases, promote inclusivity, and empower marginalized communities in educational technology design and implementation. The articles in the issue highlight the need for diverse cultural perspectives, social justice, and ethical considerations in educational technology development. The text calls for collaboration, cultural sensitivity, and dismantling of existing structures to create a more equitable and inclusive educational landscape. [Extracted from the article]
