Book Educational Development Through Information and Communications Technology

Download or read book Educational Development Through Information and Communications Technology written by Rakesh Bhanot and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2003-12-16 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Information and Communications Technology (ICT) has proved to be one of the key drivers of change in education. In higher education particularly, ICT is enabling educators, educational developers and institutions to 'reach out' to learners, using innovative approaches based on the flexibility, accessibility and diversity that it offers. This book is based on the experiences of expert educational developers from the UK, United States, Canada, South Africa and Malaysia. It considers the ways in which ICT can be used to enhance learning both on and off campus, and how educators and institutions have tackled the issues associated with the adoption of new approaches and technologies. However, as the development of new technology is relentless, the book recognizes that ICT is not a panacea in itself -- good teaching remains crucial to good education. With this in mind, the contributors address issues beyond 'technology', looking at the importance of teaching and at the skills of teachers themselves if ICT is to be truly successful. Coverage is grouped into four key themes: *strategic issues for ICT initiatives *introducing ICT into the classroom *using ICT in practice *using ICT in learning and educational support International in scope, and written by educators and educational developers rather than by technologists, this book is intended to be accessible to anyone with a critical interest in improving education through the use of ICT. It will be of particular interest to staff and educational developers, ICT coordinators, course leaders and course developers.

This e-book is divided into three main sections. The first section is concerned with the integration of ICT to contribute substantial improvements in the educational system. This section mainly focused on the important potential tools to enable educational reform processes improving both access and quality of education. The increased diffusion of ICTs will offer potentially relevant ‘solutions’ to challenges not only at the core of the teaching and learning process itself, but also its application can accelerates and improves education system on a number of fronts i.e. use of ICT for various educational objectives, bridging the educational inequalities, with the potential of overcoming obstacles like geographical barriers, teaching learning difficulties, research and bring about transformational changes in education and in response to the information needs of the modern information times. The second section deals with concept of emergence of changing face of classroom and about the digital move that can turn a new face in the education system. Focus in mainly on smart learning environment which provides variety of smart solutions in educational challenges to enhance the quality of education and to improve the performances of both teachers and students. This section provides the acquaintance with how smart solutions transformed the conventional classrooms to an advanced student-centric online learning environment and how digital integration in education changing the approach and methodology that teachers use to teach and students learn in an innovative manner using technology.

Book Examining Multiple Intelligences and Digital Technologies for Enhanced Learning Opportunities

Download or read book Examining Multiple Intelligences and Digital Technologies for Enhanced Learning Opportunities written by Zheng, Robert Z. and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2019-09-27 with total page 371 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Multiple intelligences (MI) as a cognitive psychology theory has significantly influenced learning and teaching. Research has demonstrated a strong association between individual intelligences and their cognitive processes and behaviors. However, it remains unknown how each of or a combination of these intelligences can be effectively optimized through instructional intervention, particularly through the use of emerging learning technology. On the other hand, while efforts have been made to unveil the relationship between information and communication technology (ICT) and individual learner performance, there is a lack of knowledge in how MI theory may guide the use of ICTs to enhance learning opportunities for students. Examining Multiple Intelligences and Digital Technologies for Enhanced Learning Opportunities is an essential reference book that generates new knowledge about how ICTs can be utilized to promote MI in various formal and informal learning settings. Featuring a range of topics such as augmented reality, learning analytics, and mobile learning, this book is ideal for teachers, instructional designers, curriculum developers, ICT specialists, educational professionals, administrators, instructors, academicians, and researchers.

Book Learning In a Networked Society

Download or read book Learning In a Networked Society written by Yael Kali and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-04-26 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most significant developments in contemporary education is the view that knowing and understanding are anchored in cultural practices within communities. This shift coincides with technological advancements that have reoriented end-user computer interaction from individual work to communication, participation and collaboration. However, while daily interactions are increasingly engulfed in mobile and networked Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), in-school learning interactions are, in comparison, technologically impoverished, creating the phenomenon known as the school-society digital disconnect. This volume argues that the theoretical and practical tools of scientists in both the social and educational sciences must be brought together in order to examine what types of interaction, knowledge construction, social organization and power structures: (a) occur spontaneously in technology-enhanced learning (TEL) communities or (b) can be created by design of TEL. This volume seeks to equip scholars and researchers within the fields of education, educational psychology, science communication, social welfare, information sciences, and instructional design, as well as practitioners and policy-makers, with empirical and theoretical insights, and evidence-based support for decisions providing learners and citizens with 21st century skills and knowledge, and supporting well-being in today’s information-based networked society.

The first edition of ebTEL collected contributions in the area of TEL from computer science, artificial intelligence, evidence-based medicine, educational psychology and pedagogy. Like the previous edition, this second edition, ebTEL’13, wants to be a forum in which TEL researchers and practitioners alike can discuss innovative evidence-based ideas, projects, and lessons related to TEL. The workshop took place in Salamanca, Spain, on May 22nd-24th 2013.

Book ICT and International Learning Ecologies

Download or read book ICT and International Learning Ecologies written by Ian A. Lubin and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-06-21 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the Outstanding Publication Award - Book by AECT's Culture, Learning, and Technology Division! ICT and International Learning Ecologies addresses new ways to explore international, comparative, and cultural issues in education and technology. As today’s development orthodoxies push societies around the world to adopt imported information communication tools, new approaches are needed that integrate cultural responsiveness, autonomy, and sustainability into technology-enhanced learning. This edited collection conceptually and methodologically reframes the complexities of teaching and learning in historically marginalized communities around the world, where inequities are often exacerbated by one-size-fits-all programs. Graduate students and researchers of educational technology, international/comparative education, and sustainability education will be better prepared to lead information and communication technologies (ICT) implementation across a range of contexts and learner identities.
