However, as technology continues to evolve, the Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) field faces new challenges and opportunities. One pressing issue is the need to understand the social implications of HCI in education, management, and economics. This includes how HCI impacts teaching methodologies, business practices, and economic models and how it can be leveraged to enhance productivity, innovation, and entrepreneurship. Social Reflections of Human-Computer Interaction in Education, Management, and Economics addresses these challenges by comprehensively exploring HCI and its societal implications. This book is essential for scholars, practitioners, and policymakers looking to understand the complex interplay between humans and computers in today's digital age. It offers practical insights and theoretical frameworks that can inform the design of more effective educational programs, management practices, and economic policies.
Download or read book Instructional Technology Theory in the Post Pandemic Era written by Carbonara, David D. and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2024-07-22 with total page 562 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The COVID-19 Pandemic transformed nearly every aspect of daily life across the globe in just a few short years. Thankfully, weve made it a long way from the days of no contact, social distancing, masks, and general isolation. Still, many aspects of this time have continued into the present. This is particularly true regarding education, which saw a massive overhaul during that period. Remote learning and technology infused education were a necessity then, and may prove to be an invaluable improvement as we go forward. Instructional Technology Theory in the Post-Pandemic Era investigates the facets of incorporating technology and virtual spaces into education permanently. The experienced educators that compiled this book utilize their years of knowledge to bring to light the intricacies of adapting virtual education laboratories for the foreseeable future. They examine student performance metrics, detail teacher development practices, consider the social aspects of tech-infused education, and explore the implementation of new pedagogies for best results. Covering topics such as companionship in distance education, pandemic teaching experiences, and professional and teacher development, this book is a valuable resource for educators, pre-service teachers, administrators, policymakers, academicians, researchers, and more.
Download or read book Fieldwork in Geography Reflections Perspectives and Actions written by Rod Gerber and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-14 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Geographers regard fieldwork as a vital instrument for understanding our world through direct experience, for gathering basic data about this world, and as a fundamental method for enacting geographical education. The range of international geography and educational experts who contributed to this volume has demonstrated that the concept of fieldwork has a considerable history in the field of geography. They have demonstrated that the theoretical aspects of fieldwork have been interpreted differently in regions around the world, but the importance of fieldwork remains strong globally. A fresh look at the pedagogic implications for fieldwork in formal education offers ideas both for promoting it in geographical education and for maintaining its place in the geography curriculum. Audience: Forward-looking geographers and educators now recognise that alternative strategies, especially those involving the use of information technology, should be developed to reaffirm the centrality of fieldwork in geographical and wider education.
Download or read book Technology Research and Professional Learning written by Jingjing Zhang and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-06-20 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book investigates the use of network technologies in research, and explores how such use potentially changes the nature of professional learning between academics. It attempts to situate the discussion of technology use in real-world research settings, to identify the different forms of participation in intellectual exchange embedded in academic dialogue, and to further contribute to knowledge on how the use of network technology potentially changes the nature of learning. Multiple data collection methods are employed, in two forms of study: a single case study, and a number of individual interviews. The single case study was carried out over a one-year period, and consisted of interviews (22 interviewees), observations, and document review. Individual semi-structured interviews were carried out over a similar period of time with a wider and different population of 24 academics from different Oxford faculties. Half of these were interviewed twice.The main findings presented in this book demonstrate that the direct consequences of technology use are changes to academic dialogue and scholarly communication in general. The change to this critical aspect of research – scholarly communication – has potentially led to more distributed research in interconnected research environments. It is the changes to scholarly communication and the research environment that consequently affect participation in intellectual exchange.

Download or read book Conceptual Shifts and Contextualized Practices in Education for Glocal Interaction written by Ali Fuad Selvi and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-11-03 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book employs the realm of English Language Teaching (ELT) as a discursive point of departure to explore how individuals, groups, entities and institutions apprehend, embrace, deal with, manipulate, problematize and resist glocal flows of people, ideas, information, goods, and technology. It apprehends and attends to tensions arising from the fluidly local-global construction and negotiation of borders of identity and interaction within a diverse array of contexts and English education therein. These tensions, whether conceptual or pedagogical, may arise in and through governmental and institutional policymaking, teacher training, or curriculum and materials development, and in the learning experience both within and beyond the classroom, as teachers and students engage with course content and each other.
Download or read book The Charisma Machine written by Morgan G. Ames and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2019-11-19 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fascinating examination of technological utopianism and its complicated consequences. In The Charisma Machine, Morgan Ames chronicles the life and legacy of the One Laptop per Child project and explains why—despite its failures—the same utopian visions that inspired OLPC still motivate other projects trying to use technology to “disrupt” education and development. Announced in 2005 by MIT Media Lab cofounder Nicholas Negroponte, One Laptop per Child promised to transform the lives of children across the Global South with a small, sturdy, and cheap laptop computer, powered by a hand crank. In reality, the project fell short in many ways—starting with the hand crank, which never materialized. Yet the project remained charismatic to many who were captivated by its claims of access to educational opportunities previously out of reach. Behind its promises, OLPC, like many technology projects that make similarly grand claims, had a fundamentally flawed vision of who the computer was made for and what role technology should play in learning. Drawing on fifty years of history and a seven-month study of a model OLPC project in Paraguay, Ames reveals that the laptops were not only frustrating to use, easy to break, and hard to repair, they were designed for “technically precocious boys”—idealized younger versions of the developers themselves—rather than the children who were actually using them. The Charisma Machine offers a cautionary tale about the allure of technology hype and the problems that result when utopian dreams drive technology development.
