It is both a pleasure and a great honor for me to conclude the year 2023 with the exciting announcement of the release of Issue 86 of the EDUTEC Journal. In this issue, Professor Lesley Gourlay (from the UCL) and I have collaborated as guest Editors for a special section focusing on the ‘Issues, Shadows, and Challenges of Data Ecosystems in Education.’
This special edition features contributions in both Spanish and English, showcasing insights from diverse teams operating in various contexts. The collection encompasses a range of perspectives, methodologies, and approaches, providing an extraordinary overview of the emerging questions posed by the datafication process in education.
