Call for Papers “ContraAI”: Pedagogies of Questioning in the Age of Automation
The Journal Contrapuntos en Educación invites the academic community to participate in its upcoming issue entitled “ContraAI”: Pedagogies of Questioning in the Age of Automation, dedicated to critically analyzing the formative, pedagogical, and political challenges posed by the expansion of artificial intelligence in contemporary educational contexts.
For all these reasons, this monographic issue seeks to promote rigorous and plural reflection on education in times of automation. It calls for contributions that problematize assumptions of technological neutrality and examine the epistemological, ethical, and political implications of artificial intelligence in education.
Suggested thematic linesa) “Contra-AI” as a space of subjectivity and formation.
Critical thinking in the face of the automation of knowledge; teacher education and the development of professional judgment in relation to algorithmic systems; learning in contexts of externalized answers; pedagogies of questioning, doubt, and reflection.
b) AI, power, and knowledge production.
Cognitive capitalism and the commodification of knowledge; the platformization of education; analysis of the economic and political structures supporting the development of AI; ethical regulation and educational public policies.
c) “Contra-AI” as pedagogical practice.
Situated learning versus decontextualized knowledge; educational experiences that integrate AI from a critical perspective; pedagogical design of educational contexts centered on process and transformative reflection.
d) “Contra-AI” as resistance and creation.
Practices of pedagogical resistance to automation; the recovery of educational community in the face of biased algorithmic logic; the defense of writing as a form of self-expression; Socratic dialogue; the reconstruction of practical knowledge and critical thinking as formative practices that cannot be delegated.
The deadline for the submission of articles is June 30, 2026.
