Instilling Diversity and Social Inclusion Practices in Teacher Education and Curriculum Development
There has recently been a societal push to better achieve equity for all, with many bringing to light the bias, racism, and discrimination that many factions face on a daily basis. Naturally, integrating diversity and social inclusion thoughts into the classroom is one of the best ways to start changing the mindset of society and promoting more inclusive practices in the next generations. Therefore, diversity and social inclusion have become common approaches in the planning and management of primary, secondary, and higher education schools in many international contexts. However, there are certainly challenges that must be overcome in developing these new practices and their implementation ...
Technologies for Sustainable Global Higher Education
Digital technologies are influencing the way we learn, live, work, and exist in different contexts of society in the digital age. There are a variety of learning systems that support innovative digital approaches, and universities and organizations around the world are investing in building their own e-learning platforms. Digital technologies are enabling wider access to education and new markets for student recruitment, resulting in increased income prospects for global higher education institutions. Technology enables numerous data and information sources, which give greater access to information and data. It also enables highly virtual environments, which impact teaching and the classroom...
Cases on Historical Thinking and Gamification in Social Studies and Humanities Education
Research on history education and historical thinking is becoming increasingly relevant internationally. The need for a renewal of history education is not only justified by the epistemology of history itself, but also by the demand for a methodological change in education in general, making students active protagonists in the construction of their learning and based on the development of competencies. Further study on the potential use of gamification within social studies and humanities education is required to understand its benefits and challenges. Cases on Historical Thinking and Gamification in Social Studies and Humanities Education proposes and analyzes gamification as a pedagogical innovation that can enable the renewal of the teaching and learning process of history, facilitating the active learning of historical thinking concepts while influencing students' conceptions of history as a discipline and as a school subject. Covering key topics such as historical thinking, social sciences, video games, and mobile learning, this reference work is ideal for historians, policymakers, researchers, scholars, academicians, practitioners, instructors, and students.
Ambient Intelligence – Software and Applications –,10th International Symposium on Ambient Intelligence
This book presents the latest research on Ambient Intelligence including software and applications. Ambient Intelligence (AmI) is a paradigm emerging from Artificial Intelligence, in which computers are used as proactive tools for assisting people with their day-to-day activities, making everyone’s lives more comfortable. Another main concern of AmI originates from the human–computer interaction domain and focuses on offering ways to interact with systems in a more natural way by means of user-friendly interfaces. This field is evolving rapidly, as can be seen in emerging natural language and gesture-based types of interaction. This symposium was jointly organized by the Universidade do Minho, Technical University of Valencia, Hiroshima University, and University of Salamanca. The latest installment was held in Ávila, Spain, from 26th to 28th June 2019. The authors wish to thank the sponsors: IEEE Systems Man and Cybernetics Society, Spain Section Chapter and the IEEE Spain Section (Technical Co-Sponsor), IBM, Indra, Viewnext, Global Exchange, AEPIA, APPIA and AIR Institute.
Ambient Intelligence – Software and Applications
This book includes the outcomes of the 11th International Symposium on Ambient Intelligence (ISAmI 2020). The 11th International Symposium on Ambient Intelligence is hosted by the University of L’Aquila and is going to be held in L’Aquila (Italy). Initially planned on the 17th to the 19th of June 2020, it was postponed to the 7th to the 9th of October 2020, due to the COVID-19 outbreak.
Desafíos en la investigación e innovación para las prácticas en educación
En educación existen desafíos, objetivos y necesidades para realizar acciones investigadoras e innovadoras ajustando los procesos educativos a las realidades sociales, a las necesidades individuales y a la inclusión de nuevos grupos sociales. En los capítulos de esta obra se refleja la expansión de las metodologías activas de enseñanza y la necesidad de que los miembros de la comunidad educativa se mantengan actualizados. Se señala cómo la inclusión educativa es un proceso en evolución, social y normativa, que precisa enfoques avanzados y rigurosos que disminuyan la vulnerabilidad a la que se enfrentan algunos grupos poblacionales (especialmente, mujeres e inmigrantes). Destacan t...
Investigación en educación sobre las TIC y los métodos activos en Ciencias Sociales
La gran diversidad de los fenómenos educativos influenciados por las TIC está planteando nuevos paradigmas en la investigación educativa en las ciencias sociales que apuntan a la necesidad de dar mayor peso a las preocupaciones de los docentes, siendo vital que estos vuelvan a tener más oportunidades de reciclarse profesionalmente en relación con las TIC y los métodos activos. En esta obra se hallan trabajos de investigación sobre tecnología y su vinculación a las ciencias sociales, así como investigaciones sobre los valores y educación, la Escuela de Maestros desde el modelo Etievan, la geografía del abandono universitario, el diagnóstico de las necesidades percibidas en los menores con medidas judiciales, el análisis de las competencias científicas tras una intervención didáctica gamificada con tecnología, el análisis sobre los contenidos presentes en la enseñanza de la historia, los estilos de pensamiento y posición epistémica, y el enfoque didáctico sobre la manufactura de la seda en el callejero de Granada. Sin duda, estamos ante una obra referente de investigación en educación sobre las TIC y los métodos activos en las ciencias sociales.
