Adaptation Studies and Learning
Adaptation Studies is a fast-emerging discipline which has expanded into other areas of media scholarship. With its roots in literature and film, this discipline can be applied to much broader uses, even as a process that governs every aspect of our lives. Indeed, by expanding the scope of “adaptation” to encompass a larger perspective, this discipline can promote lifelong learning that emphasizes communication, social interaction, and aesthetic engagement. In Adaptation Studies and Learning: New Frontiers, Laurence Raw and Tony Gurr seek to redefine the ways in which adaptation is taught and learned. Comprised of essays, reflections, and “learning conversations” about the ways in wh...
The Sharing Economy in Europe
This open access book considers the development of the sharing and collaborative economy with a European focus, mapping across economic sectors, and country-specific case studies. It looks at the roles the sharing economy plays in sharing and redistribution of goods and services across the population in order to maximise their functionality, monetary exchange, and other aspects important to societies. It also looks at the place of the sharing economy among various policies and how the contexts of public policies, legislation, digital platforms, and other infrastructure interrelate with the development and function of the sharing economy. The book will help in understanding the future (sharin...
Teaching Adaptations
Teaching Adaptations addresses the challenges and appeal of teaching popular fiction and culture, video games and new media content, which serve to enrich the curriculum, as well as exploit the changing methods by which English students read and consume literary and screen texts.
MOOCs and Their Afterlives
A trio of headlines in the Chronicle of Higher Education seem to say it all: in 2013, “A Bold Move Toward MOOCs Sends Shock Waves;” in 2014, “Doubts About MOOCs Continue to Rise,” and in 2015, “The MOOC Hype Fades.” At the beginning of the 2010s, MOOCs, or Massive Open Online Courses, seemed poised to completely revolutionize higher education. But now, just a few years into the revolution, educators’ enthusiasm seems to have cooled. As advocates and critics try to make sense of the rise and fall of these courses, both groups are united by one question: Where do we go from here? Elizabeth Losh has gathered experts from across disciplines—education, rhetoric, philosophy, litera...
Sociology & Education
Teachers, parents, students and the governmental agencies are involved in the process of education. The social levels from whom teachers and students come go to determine the quality of education. The process like the community from whom the teachers come and the communities from whom the students can go a long way in influencing the curriculum contents and the outcome of learning. The major problem of any system of education is the outcome of learning after students learn the curriculum and go back to their home as trained citizens of a civilized society. The book has in its contents much to help and guide the students to choose any one of the professional alternatives to decide the direction of their careers. This book, thus, provides many educational ideas for both teachers and students, and as such, this book is a must for all educational institutions and interested persons as well. This unique book is an incomparable title for today's educational researchers and will prove to be insightful with the continuing studies in sociology of education and sociology and education.
Learning with e's
In an age where young people seem to have a natural affinity with smartphones, computer games and social media, teachers and lecturers face a big challenge - or a golden opportunity. How can new technology promote learning, engage students and motivate them to sustain a lifelong career in learning? For educators everywhere, our challenge is to take devices that have the potential for great distraction and boldly appropriate them as tools that can inspire and engage. On the back of Steve's hugely popular blog, also named 'Learning with 'e's', he shows how the world of learning is changing, and how new technology - and you and I - can make a difference. The proliferation of digital technologie...
Communities of Hustling
Diese ethnographische Studie von Daniel Ganzert untersucht Erfahrungen und informelle Bildungspraktiken männlicher Jugendlicher in marginalisierten Großstadtquartieren in Italien und Deutschland. Der Autor zeigt auf, wie junge Männer in Kontexten dauerhafter Prekarität, geringer Institutionalisierung und in Auseinandersetzung mit organisierter Kriminalität kreative Praktiken der Lebensbewältigung, der Mobilität, des Wissenserwerbs und -transfers sowie der Erwerbstätigkeit entwickeln. Hierfür wurden lange Feldbeobachtungen, Gruppendiskussionen und biographische Interviews realisiert, die dokumentarisch ausgewertet wurden.
