Handbook of Teaching Competency Development in Higher Education
This is an open access book. It draws from relevant theories and approaches to teachers’ professional development (TPD) and innovative and inspiring TPD practices in higher education. It first lays a solid foundation for the rest of the book, through critiquing prevalent theories, approaches, and teaching competency frameworks guiding TPD in higher education, and defining the key concepts related to TPD. The book then develops a standard framework and assessment instrument of teaching competencies as well as ways of using this framework by institutions, departments at different levels, and individual teachers. It also proposes strategies for improving teachers’ teaching competencies by reviewing what has been achieved to date in TPD in terms of national-level policies and strategies, institutional-level interventions, and teachers’ self-directed professional development. Finally, it also presents case studies of typical practices in TPD in different countries.
Handbook of Educational Reform Through Blended Learning
This open access book provides related theories, methods, strategies, and practical cases for implementing education reform through blended learning in curriculum, program, and institutions in the digital age.

Audio- and Video-Based Biometric Person Authentication
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 5th International Conference on Audio- and Video-Based Biometric Person Authentication, AVBPA 2005, held in Hilton Rye Town, NY, USA, in July 2005. The 66 revised oral papers and 50 revised poster papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions. The papers discuss all aspects of biometrics including iris, fingerprint, face, palm print, gait, gesture, speaker, and signature; theoretical and algorithmic issues are dealt with as well as systems issues. The industrial side of biometrics is evident from presentations on smart cards, wireless devices, and architectural and implementation aspects.
Biometric Authentication
The past decade has seen a rapid growth in the demand for biometric-based - thentication solutions for a number of applications. With signi?cant advances in biometrictechnologyandanincreaseinthenumberofapplicationsincorporating biometrics, it is essential that we bring together researchers from academia and industry as well as practitioners to share ideas, problems and solutions for the development and successful deployment of state-of-the-art biometric systems. The InternationalConference onBiometric Authentication (ICBA 2004)was the?rst major gathering in the Asia-Paci?c region devoted to facilitating this interaction. We are pleased that this conference attracted a large number of high-qu...
The Teaching and Learning Challenges of 21st-Century Higher Education
Pedagogy is at the heart of the higher education student experience. This book explores pedagogy in a range of higher education (HE) practices and draws from the expertise of a range of professionals working in higher education across three countries (the UK, China and Malaysia), thus giving voice to a number of debates around teaching and learning practice in higher education from different cultural perspectives. The volume also explores challenges that have arisen as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic which has forced higher education practitioners to reconceptualise pedagogy. It provides insights into different approaches to teaching in 21st-century higher education and as such has a practical focus that will appeal to HE practitioners who are keen to enhance their own practice and, as a consequence, student outcomes.
Innovative Education Informatization with Chinese Characteristics
This book contains the research of Innovative Education Informatization conducted by researchers from School of Educational Technology, Beijing Normal University since early 1990s. There are three main parts of the book. The first part is about six pillars supporting the theory of Innovative Education Informatization with Chinese Characteristics. Six theories are: 1) Theory of Creative Thinking, 2) New Constructivism, 3) Theory of In-depth Integration of Information Technology and Subjects Teaching, 4) New Theory of Teaching Design, 5) Theory of Children’s Thinking Development, and 6) Language Sense Theory. The second part pays attention to advocating maker education system with Chinese characteristics. The third part focuses on Chinese-style flipped classroom.
