Digitalization and Digital Competence in Educational Contexts

This edited collection presents a Nordic perspective on intensified discussions concerning digitalization and digital competence in the current trends of educational work. Using a multidisciplinary and holistic approach, the book compares Nordic countries’ attitudes towards the digitalization of education and demonstrates the Nordic region’s position as digital front-runners in a European and a global context. The book provides up-to-date cases and future-oriented perspectives on digitalization and digital competence in educational work. Chapters use empirical data gained from policy documents, interviews, and questionnaires to present nuanced discussions, theoretical perspectives, and implications for the future of digitalization in education. Ultimately, this book’s reach far exceeds that of its Nordic contexts and will be of use to postgraduate students, researchers, and scholars across the globe involved with digital education, teacher education, and educational policy and politics more broadly.

The authors utilize an interdisciplinary methodology, bridging the epistemological divide between the techno...

Exploring Digital Resilience

This book explores multidimensional issues concerning digital resilience and analyzes how people and organizations maintain, enhance and protect value stemming from digital technologies. Society is now heading for a future in which organizations and people will increasingly depend on digital technologies, yet to date many are still unaware of the scale and risks associated with the digital transformation. As a result, there is an urgent need for digital resilience to drive a fundamental shift in the way people and organizations understand digital technologies, risks and opportunities. The book gathers a selection of the best papers presented at the annual conference of the Italian chapter of AIS, which took place in Trento, Italy, in October 2021. The diverse range of views put forward by the authors makes it particularly relevant for scholars and practitioners interested in organization, and for all of us living in the digital transformation era.

Theorie

Theorien sind für die Wissenschaften notwendig, denn ohne sie ist Weltverstehen nicht möglich. Wie aber steht es um Theorieentwicklung und Theoriediskussion in den gesellschaftswissenschaftlichen Fachdidaktiken? Die Beiträge des Heftes fragen unter anderem nach Möglichkeiten theoretischer Forschung, nach dem Verhältnis von pädagogischen und fachwissenschaftlichen Theorien sowie nach jenem von Fachlichkeit und Transdisziplinarität in den Gesellschaftswissenschaften. Hinzu kommen Beiträge zu den Theoriekonzepten Dialektik und Urteilsfähigkeit.
