Wenn von Medienbildung bzw. Digitaler Grundbildung oder Digitaler Schule die Rede ist, ist eine Auseinandersetzung mit den Produktionsbedingungen digitaler Endgeräte unumgänglich. Dies betrifft nicht zuletzt die „Geräteinitiative“ als Teil des 8-Punkte-Plans für die Digitalisierung der österreichischen Schulen durch das BMBWF. Hier eröffnen sich – gerade für Bildungsinstitutionen, die sich dem UNESCO-Weltzukunftsvertrag Agenda 2030 verpflichten, zu denen das Ziel menschenwürdige Arbeit für alle zählt – vielfältige Aspekte, auf die der folgende Beitrag aufmerksam machen möchte.
