The Routledge Handbook of Designing Public Spaces for Young People
The Routledge Handbook of Designing Public Spaces for Young People is a thorough and practical resource for all who wish to influence policy and design decisions in order to increase young people’s access to and use of public spaces, as well as their role in design and decision-making processes.

Changing World Economic Order in the Post-Pandemic Period
Post COVID-19, the world will never be the same. The pandemic not only shattered many assumptions about economic developments and growth, but it also challenged our preparedness to face any unpredictable challenge as a human civilization in an era where science and technology is at its peak. To suppress the spread of COVID-19, many countries resorted to partial or full closure of their borders and restricted the movement of people. Mandatory quarantine restricted labor mobility and workplace closure, which later converted into supply shocks in the economy, as these measures impaired the economy’s production capacity, disrupting supplies. This later spilled over to the demand side as people...

Digital Technologies and Change in Education
Digital Technologies and Change in Education provides professionals and other leaders with a road map of the processes of change for teachers, schools, universities, and educational systems, including extensive case studies and evidence that clarify the benefits and challenges of digital technologies in education. To this end, Niki Davis offers a theoretical framework—the Arena—as a tool for exploration and analysis of our own experiences of teaching, leadership, and research. With a blend of local, regional, and global examples from all sectors of education, this book allows readers to move past the potentially misleading glitter of new technologies and into the co-evolving ecologies that make up education and training locally and globally.
Reconfiguring Pedagogy and Curriculum Practice in light of Online Teaching
As one of the experimental projects initiated by Springer Nature for AI book content generation, this book is the result of a collaboration between a human editor and an artificial intelligence algorithm to create a machine-generated literature overview of research articles analyzing the importance of reconfiguring, restructuring and re-evolving educational practices. Each chapter presents summaries of predefined themes and provides the reader with a basis for further exploration of the topic. The pandemic has led academicians, researchers, teachers, students, parents, and even the government to penetrate and understand the challenges that it has brought and the importance of reconfiguring, restructuring and re-evolving educational practices. Insight into the involvement of computer application and information technology can be a harbinger of a new education era. This book precisely discusses these aspects and the future we are moving towards by inculcating technological changes in the educational curriculum.
