Download or read book Changing Cultures in Higher Education written by Ulf-Daniel Ehlers and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-03-10 with total page 544 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More and more educational scenarios and learning landscapes are developed using blogs, wikis, podcasts and e-portfolios. Web 2.0 tools give learners more control, by allowing them to easily create, share or reuse their own learning materials, and these tools also enable social learning networks that bridge the border between formal and informal learning. However, practices of strategic innovation of universities, faculty development, assessment, evaluation and quality assurance have not fully accommodated these changes in technology and teaching. Ehlers and Schneckenberg present strategic approaches for innovation in universities. The contributions explore new models for developing and engaging faculty in technology-enhanced education, and they detail underlying reasons for why quality assessment and evaluation in new – and often informal – learning scenarios have to change. Their book is a practical guide for educators, aimed at answering these questions. It describes what E-learning 2.0 is, which basic elements of Web 2.0 it builds on, and how E-learning 2.0 differs from Learning 1.0. The book also details a number of quality methods and examples, such as self-assessment, peer-review, social recommendation, and peer-learning, using illustrative cases and giving practical recommendations. Overall, it offers a step-by-step guide for educators so that they can choose their own quality assurance or assessment methods, or develop their own evaluation methodology for specific learning scenarios. The book addresses everyone involved in higher education – university leaders, chief information officers, change and quality assurance managers, and faculty developers. Pedagogical advisers and consultants will find new insights and practices for the integration and management of novel learning technologies in higher education. The volume fosters in lecturers and teachers a sound understanding of the need and strategy for change, and it provides them with practical recommendations on competence and quality methodologies.

Download or read book Gamechanger AI written by Klaus Henning and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-10-26 with total page 139 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Artificial intelligence changes everything. This book encourages readers to consider the challenges of the digital transformation driven by Artificial Intelligence. The reader will discover why this transformation is to be regarded as the greatest cultural revolution since the invention of mass printing and how it can be shaped positively in a value-oriented way. The author pursues the thesis that intelligent objects on the internet, as well as physical objects, are attaining their own consciousness. Using many examples, he shows how these digital companions become our digital partners. This non-fiction book provides many suggestions for one's own living and working environment and is full of examples of how artificial intelligence systems can be implemented. The reader learns what is already possible today and what can be expected in the next ten to twenty years. The book is of interest to anyone interested in AI and the digital transformation - from those responsible in companies, public institutions, and in politics, to all teachers and parents who want to understand what the next generation can expect.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Against the backdrop of a rapidly changing world, formal schooling is frequently following rather than leading. The impression is given by central government that the education system serves as a 'thermostat' restoring society's settings in areas such as productivity, citizenship, health, sexual mores and behaviour. Educational reform over the last twenty years has clarified an existing educational process, reformatted the financial management of schools and resuscitated the inspection system. It has not, however, laid the foundations of a world-class future responsive educational system. Shaping a New Educational Landscape brings together writers considering a wide range of possibilities for future development in education and society from different perspectives. Exploring alternative scenarios and strategies, they are not engaged in making accurate predictions but in unsettling present thinking and stimulating discussion. Together they form a fascinating contribution to the growing debate about how we might generate an educational process that will sponsor new economic paradigms and create a bold participative society on the new global stage.

Download or read book Personalizing Learning written by John West-Burnham and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2005-07-01 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most schools have improved significantly over the past ten years. The quality of teaching is better than it has ever been and yet there is a sense that schools are still not meeting the needs of all young people. The answer to this challenge is personalizing learning; a switch from the school to the learner - from the needs of the system to the needs of the person. This book presents both a manifesto and a model for the personalization of learning. It combines emerging theories of learning with best professional practice to support schools in developing their own way of moving from improvement to transformation.

Download or read book Cognitive Science in Education and Alternative Teaching Strategies written by Boris Aberšek and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2017-06-20 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cognitive science deals with such questions as 'How do we think?' and 'How do we learn, memorize, dream?'. It tackles the subject of human mentality by connecting discoveries from a range of disciplines that shed light on cognitive occurrences and the learning process. Cognitive science unites the fields of neuroscience, psychology, philosophy, linguistics, artificial intelligence, and social sciences. This book, aimed mostly at teachers, will provoke cognitive dissonance and intellectual unease, as it explores cognitive theories and allows teachers to update and internalise their ‘in-head theories’, embedded from their own school years. In order for this to happen, this volume provides information on new experiences of alternative teaching practices. Creating conditions for gaining these teaching experiences is the primary function and fundamental mission of politics in the field of education.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores education in the 21st century in post-modern Western societies through a philosophical lens. Taking a broad perspective of education and its attendant terminology, assumptions, myths and influences; the author examines why we teach as opposed to how. In doing so, he includes not only teachers, but all adults who are involved in bringing up children. Applying philosophical theories throughout history to present day practice, this volume is sure to be a useful resource not only for teachers who are just starting out, but those with an interest in education in the past, present and future. This wide-ranging book will be valuable for educators, parents and educational policy makers, and all those who believe it takes a village to raise a child.

Download or read book CYBERCRIME VICTIMISATION written by Dr. V. Henry Jerome and published by Blue Rose Publishers. This book was released on 2021-05-26 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cyber space is used as a platform to commit many criminal activities. Due to the novel characteristics of the new cyberspace such as anonymity, inter-connectivity, ambiguity, ability to shrink time and space and expansion, crimes in it create a special process of victimisation and a special category of victims. It is in this background the readers are invited to read through the pages of this study. This study also has made an attempt to find out what happens to the victims of cybercrime in terms of impact and reporting behaviour. “This book brings out the nature of cybercrime victimisation among college students. The research is going to be very useful for all the people who are interested in reducing the number of cybercrime in their areas, especially in college campuses. I heartily appreciate the author for having ventured into such important research and for publishing it now so that the readers will learn the intricacies of cybercrime victimisation process and the ways of supporting the cybercrime victims”.
