This Pivot book looks at the ways in which disruptive technologies, datafication, and Artificial Intelligence (AI) are shaping Comparative and International (CIE) Education and leading to its platformization. CIE entails the study of foreign educational systems in comparative perspective to discern what can be learned from approaches in various educational contexts and how these approaches might be applicable to other educational systems. The advent of advanced technologies, particularly AI, has been a game changer for research, teaching, and learning methods. It is within this context and at the intersection of deglobalization (and the retreat towards regionalization) and the rise of the fourth industrial revolution – that blends the biological, physical, and cyber-physical together – that this project seeks to describe the benefits and consequences of datafication and AI for the field of CIE.
