This project addresses the long-standing question of why digital technologies have largely failed to have a consistent impact on the core processes of schools and schooling. The overarching aim of the project, therefore, is to identify the socio-technical adjustments that might be made within schools to facilitate ‘better’ uses of digital technology. Using an innovative combination of large-scale surveying, in-depth ethnographic study and critical participatory design, the project will: provide rich insights into why digital technologies are often not being used to their full potential in schools; and actively collaborate with school communities in experimenting and constructing alternatives.

该项目解决了一个长期存在的问题，即为什么数字技术在很大程度上未能对学校和学校教育的核心过程产生持续的影响。因此，该项目的总体目标是确定可能在学校内进行的社会技术调整，以促进“更好”使用数字技术。通过大规模调查、深入的人种学研究和关键的参与式设计的创新结合，该项目将：提供丰富的见解，了解为什么数字技术往往没有在学校中充分发挥其潜力；并积极与学校社区合作，试验和构建替代方案。
