Learning Innovation and the Future of Higher Education
Giving higher education professionals the language and tools they need to seize new opportunities in digital learning. A quiet revolution is sweeping across US colleges and universities.As schools rethink how students learn - both inside and outside the classroom - technology is changing not only what should be taught but how best to teach it.From active learning and inclusive pedagogy to online and hybrid courses, traditional institutions are leveraging their fundamental strengths while challenging long-standing assumptions about how teaching and learning happen.At this intersection of learning, technology, design, and organizational change lies the foundation of a new academic discipline of digital learning.Coalescing around this new field of study is a common critical language, along with a set of theoretical frameworks, methodological practices, and shared challenges and goals.In Learning Innovation and the Future of Higher Education, Joshua Kim and Edward Maloney explore the context of this new discipline, show how it exists within a larger body of scholarship, and give examples of how this scholarship is being used on campuses. What Kim and Maloney demonstrate in this foundational text is an understanding that change is a complex dynamic between what happens in the classroom and the larger institutional structures and traditions at play.Ultimately, the authors make a compelling case not only for this turn to learning but also for creating new pathways for nonfaculty learning careers, understanding the limits of professional organizations and social media, and the need to establish this new interdisciplinary field of learning innovation.

Experience And Education
Experience and Educationis the best concise statement on education ever published by John Dewey, the man acknowledged to be the pre-eminent educational theorist of the twentieth century.Written more than two decades after Democracy and Education(Dewey's most comprehensive statement of his position in educational philosophy), this book demonstrates how Dewey reformulated his ideas as a result of his intervening experience with the progressive schools and in the light of the criticisms his theories had received.Analysing both "traditional" and "progressive" education, Dr. Dewey here insists that neither the old nor the new education is adequate and that each is miseducative because neither of them applies the principles of a carefully developed philosophy of experience.Many pages of this volume illustrate Dr. Dewey's ideas for a philosophy of experience and its relation to education.He particularly urges that all teachers and educators looking for a new movement in education should think in terms of the deeped and larger issues of education rather than in terms of some divisive "ism" about education, even such an "ism" as "progressivism." His philosophy, here expressed in its most essential, most readable form, predicates an American educational system that respects all sources of experience, on that offers a true learning situation that is both historical and social, both orderly and dynamic.

Is Technology Good for Education?
Digital technologies are a key feature of contemporary education.Schools, colleges and universities operate along high-tech lines, while alternate forms of online education have emerged to challenge the dominance of traditional institutions.According to many experts, the rapid digitization of education over the past ten years has undoubtedly been a ‘good thing’. Is Technology Good For Education? offers a critical counterpoint to this received wisdom, challenging some of the central ways in which digital technology is presumed to be positively affecting education.Instead Neil Selwyn considers what is being lost as digital technologies become ever more integral to education provision and engagement.Crucially, he questions the values, agendas and interests that stand to gain most from the rise of digital education. This concise, up-to-the-minute analysis concludes by considering alternate approaches that might be capable of rescuing and perhaps revitalizing the ideals of public education, while not denying the possibilities of digital technology altogether.

Climate Change, Education, and Technology
The climate change crisis is the greatest challenge humanity has ever confronted.As human activities are the most significant cause for this crisis, the solution must come from within humanity.While global movements—NGOs, universities, municipal governments, etc.—are doing their part to combat the crisis, the role of education and technology cannot be emphasized enough.Education is necessary to enhance awareness, especially among the youth, generate solutions, and implement them.Technology contributes to this process by creating climate change-fighting solutions, accumulating and analysing data, and providing energy efficiency.Technology also enables the monitoring of the climate, the mitigation of its effects, and the enhancement of the environment.Therefore, climate change, education, and the use of technology should be addressed as a unit.In this volume, the authors integrate climate change, education, and technological applications. This book is comprehensive and offers readers a variety of perspectives, encouraging the generation of novel and inventive ideas.The collaboration of authors from various disciplines to address the issue brings about novel and intriguing perspectives.
