Postdigital research is an emerging approach that bridges theory and methodology to examine relationships between digital technology philosophy, the social sciences humanities. Rather than seeking define a specific or prescribe definitive set of methods, researchers in this area often suggest position openness inclusivity. This encyclopaedia entry begins by describing general orientation postdigital terms methods.

Educational genomics is an emerging field of research that analyses associations between vast samples human DNA and educational outcomes. I trace how this navigates a series old new methodological problems political controversies, while attempting to distance itself from the elitist, eugenic, racist history genetics in education. Moving away genetic determinism, its multidisciplinary approach embeds knowledge social sciences selectively. In particular, highlight microeconomic methodologies concepts have become salient not only genomic explanations hypotheses but also scientists’ understanding ‘equality’, reframing past debates reimagining governance applications knowledge. While controversies on biologisation hierarchies persist, associated difference, now framed around producing are premised genomics’ contribution predicting, valuing, enhancing capital.
