Zusammenfassung
The present age can be seen as a period of a new great transformation, which implicates a need for “new forms of education […] beyond literacy and numeracy, to focus on learning environments and on new approaches to learning for greater justice, social equity and global solidarity” (UNESCO 2015, p. 3). In 2015, Gunawardena emphasized in a keynote on “Global Perspectives on Culture and Online Learning” that “We lack a universally applicable theory for classifying cultural differences, and especially in technology mediated learning environments it is really challenging to define culture; BUT it opens up for us a huge possibility to define culture in relation to our own context” (Gunawardena 2015, 05:34). To analyze theories and practical approaches, but also to develop and to conceptualize future learning-settings, defining culture, especially learning culture, in relation to the specific contexts of particular theories and practical approaches, could become an aspect of crucial importance.
