Some forms of technology extend human presence over great distance and bring the absent one nearer; the telephone and fax machine do this
Anyone with passing familiarity with Heidegger’s biography, or who has read Heidegger’s Introduction to Metaphysics (1953), will at least know of his ill-timed German nationalism or of his strained relationships with some of his Jewish compatriots
The recent publication of his Black Notebooks has reframed these issues, bringing them into clear connection with his philosophy. These revelations have been seen by some scholars as marking the point at which we should “rethink, from scratch, what his work was about” (Thomas Sheehan, as quoted in Schuessler, 2014)
Summary
Some forms of technology extend human presence over great distance and bring the absent one nearer; the telephone and fax machine do this. This special issue of Phenomenology & Practice hopes to point toward one or more possible “ways” for thinking about “Being Online.” This special issue is devoted to the questions, using the phenomenological description and exploration of the experience, of being online in educational or pedagogical contexts.
