The impact and implications of the new information technologies as new intensities of media culture have only recently begun to register in mainstream educational theory and practice. This can be usefully considered in terms of the relationship between education and postmodernism. The paper explores concepts and images arguably peculiar to these new technocultural conditions, with reference specifically to educational crisis, alienation, contemporary youth culture, and technology. The hypothesis is that quite different youth and student subjectivities are currently forming out of the relations and practices of the new information technologies, and hence radical shifts are required in the social and educational imagination regarding young people, schooling and popular culture.
