“Designing Discussion for Online and Blended Courses offers a much-needed intellectual intervention. … This book is a rare and timely contribution that translates a philosophical critique of educational technicalism into actionable pedagogical practice. … it offers both a conceptual and practical toolkit for educators who are ready to reclaim digital learning spaces from the logic of instrumentalism. It is an essential resource for teacher educators and researchers” (William Xaveriano Waresindo and Richardo Barry Astro, Asia-Pacific Journal of Teacher Education, November 10, 2025)
