Book Synopsis Language and Learning in the Digital Age by : James Paul Gee
Download or read book Language and Learning in the Digital Age written by James Paul Gee and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2011-02-01 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Language and Learning in the Digital Age, linguist James Paul Gee and educator Elisabeth Hayes deal with the forces unleashed by today’s digital media, forces that are transforming language and learning for good and ill. They argue that the role of oral language is almost always entirely misunderstood in debates about digital media. Like the earlier inventions of writing and print, digital media actually power up or enhance the powers of oral language. Gee and Hayes deal, as well, with current digital transformations of language and literacy in the context of a growing crisis in traditional schooling in developed countries. With the advent of new forms of digital media, children are increasingly drawn towards video games, social media, and alternative ways of learning. Gee and Hayes explore the way in which these alternative methods of learning can be a force for a paradigm change in schooling. This is an engaging, accessible read both for undergraduate and graduate students and for scholars in language, linguistics, education, media and communication studies.

Book Synopsis Acceptance of Integration of Mobile Technology in the Higher Education Environment by : Shawnice L. Avilez

This book was released on 2017 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this survey research was to determine factors that influenced college instructors' behavioral intentions to use mobile technology. The study extended the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) framework, with subjective norm and facilitating conditions acting as potential predictors of instructors' behavioral intention and self-reported intention to use mobile technology (iPads/laptops). A survey instrument was adapted by the author from published guidelines and prior research surveys. The survey was delivered using Qualtrics, a web-based survey tool. The survey instrument included items based on the constructs of the TAM model. The researcher analyzed the data using multiple regression analyses. Utilization of TAM was based heavily on its predictive ability to measure users' acceptance or rejection of technological innovations within an organization. The findings of this study suggest that despite the moderate fit of the overall model to the data, TAM is nonetheless useful for predicting college instructors' behavior intention to utilize mobile technology within the higher education environment. While none of Davis's (1989) main predictors influenced the user's intent to utilize mobile technology, subjective norms provided the strongest prediction. It was the strongest predictor in explaining the variance, a finding that differed from the majority of empirical research that employed TAM in mobile and other learning technology research. Consideration of emerging technological tools, such as mobile technology, as an educational resource can be viewed as an important step for tertiary level administrators. Examining the relationship between current usage of mobile technology and college instructors' behavioral intentions to use the device can shed light on future adaption patterns of mobile technology in the higher education environment. The findings of this study have a number of implications. First, by investigating the manner in which mobile technology is being used by instructors in the higher education environment, school administrators could use the findings (a) to improve technology implementation and utilization strategies; and (b) to support making decisions and regulations related to the use of mobile technology. In addition, the results of this study can be used to make informed strategic decisions regarding technological integration within the higher education environment. By capitalizing on the relationships between subjective norms and facilitating years (experience) with college instructors' intention, administrators can creatively and effectively increase use of technological tools in the higher education environment.

Book Synopsis Transformation in Higher Education by : Nico Cloete
Download or read book Transformation in Higher Education written by Nico Cloete and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2006 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the most comprehensive and most thorough study of the developments in South African higher education and research after the first democratic elections of 1994 – that is of post-Apartheid South African higher education. This volume will provide its readers with a detailed insight into the new (i.e. post-1994) South African higher education system. The large number of experienced authors and editors involved in the book guarantees that the reader will be introduced in the new SA higher education system from a large number of perspectives that are presented in a consistent and coherent way. This book will be of interest to scholars, students, administrators, policymakers and politicians interested in South Africa, higher education and research, and policy analysis. "Publications on higher education are not new. But this volume, which is the first of its kind as a collective effort of tracing and examining the twists and turns taken by processes of change in the South African higher education system in a context of profound societal and global transformation, adds a fresh dimension to the debate. In its examination of the extent to which the changes were in line with policy intentions, particularly with regard to equity, democratisation, responsiveness and efficiency, and how a new institutional landscape started emerging, it makes a momentous contribution to the current debate about higher education restructuring." Njabulo Ndebele, Vice-chancellor, University of Cape Town and Chair of the South African Association of University Vice-chancellors "This book addresses a rich variety of issues on South African higher education. It puts these in the relevant context of the process of globalization and it shows that the South African experiences offer us a lot to learn. Highly recommended for those who are intrigued by the innovations taking place in South African higher education as well as for those who intend to grasp the effects of globalization." Frans van Vught, Rector Magnificus and founding Director of the Center for Higher Education Policy Studies, University of Twente, The Netherlands "Reflection is a crucial ingredient to learning. In this book on higher education we have reflections on a unique period in the history of a country that managed its transition to democracy in a way that was unique, but from which we can all learn. Higher education in South Africa played a vital role in that transition and was part of the many tensions, choices and influences. They have been thoughtfully captured." Brenda Gourley, Vice-chancellor, The Open University, UK and board member, Centre for Higher Education Transformation. "No contemporary higher education system has changed as dramatically as that in South Africa. This book, rich in data, examines the changes that took place and offers insights into how change frequently cannot be predicted. The analysis captures the excitement, high expectations, remarkable successes, and failures in the transformation of the apartheid system of higher education. This excellent study provides rich fare for comparative analysis." Fred M. Hayward, American Council on Education Pilot Project, Executive Vice President, Council for Higher Education Accreditation, US.

Book Synopsis Political Economy of Education in Lebanon by : Husein Abdul-Hamid
Download or read book Political Economy of Education in Lebanon written by Husein Abdul-Hamid and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2020-03-18 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Education is a source of national pride in Lebanon. When the general public was asked how the education system was performing, 76 percent of respondents had a positive opinion; and these satisfaction rates have been consistently high over the years. However, perception of education quality does not reflect the reality of the sector; and learning outcomes, which are the determining metrics of success in education, have been lower than the international average, with a declining trend since 2007. This volume seeks to uncover why the education system in Lebanon is not reaching its full potential. It uses a political economy approach to study the drivers and factors that guide education operations to produce and utilize education outcomes. This includes the study of context, stakeholders, and processes that shape education policies, institutions, and activities. It also aims to identify enablers of and constraints on policy change and implementation, as well as the achievement of results. In this context, the analysis encompasses how education policies are developed; how education consumables—such as curricula, textbooks, and learning materials—are produced, distributed, and used by learners; how education services are delivered and monitored; and how achieved results are measured. It includes the identification of the most influential actors in the education arena, as well as their vested interests. It also examines unfavorable frameworks for action that are likely to block the adoption of reforms and delay or derail their implementation. The system-level analysis presented in this volume used a mixed-method approach. Qualitative and quantitative analyses were conducted based on a review and analysis of more than 1,900 research papers, articles, and books; laws and policies; expenditures; trends; and enrollment and outcome indicators. Primary methods of inquiry were also used and included interviews, focus group discussions, and a household-based perception survey.
