educational technology, educational research, digital agency, data literacy.Abstract
The main goal of this special issue of RIED is trying to contribute to promoting critical transformation processes in the field of Educational Technology through a collection of nine articles that manage to make, at the same time, a state of the art and an analysis of some of the debates that have gained strength in the field in recent times. This introduction is not intended to summarize these articles, but to offer an overview and, at the same time, to propose a dialogue that includes the points of view expressed in these articles, other perspectives that have surely been insinuated to us in research and even others that seem latent in our praxis. Specifically, with an intention of proposition, seven pending conversations are succinctly considered, that refer to: 1) Understanding educational processes with technology and technologies to understand educational processes; 2) Making educational decisions with technology; 3) Digital agency; 4) The nature of educational institutions in times of technology; 5) Enriching the role of participants in institutions with technologies; 6) Defining educational technology; and, finally, 7) Investigating educational technology.
