N2 - This article presents a discussion and a new theoretical model about how we adequately can describe education on the level of the classroom after the introduction of digital media and wireless networks. As its point of departure the article describes the contemporary situation within !he classroom referring to rescan::h in Danish upper secondary schools. Then it discusses Ihis situation in relation to medium theory and the education situation before digital media and wireless networks. After that the article provides a systems theorctical explanation following Niklas Luhmann and finds the theory's explanatory power limited in relation to the new situation. Ncxt thc article introduces actor networktheory following Bruno Latour to overcomc the limits of Luhmann's systems theory and reconstruct it fuuning a hybrid theory both sensitive to the new situation and able to observe it and analyze it adequately as historically linked to the old society. Exemplifying this hybrid theoretical model thearticle presents the action research project, Socio Media Education. showing pedagogicalconsequences and possibilities of the new media environment in relation to education. Finally weprovide a conclusion on the contemporary situation of social m~ia and the hybridization ofeducation.
