Learning, Teaching, and Social Media: A Generational Approach (Routledge Research in Digital Education and Educational Technology)
by Andrew McWhirterEmploying a unique generational approach, this book critically assesses social media in educational contexts across all educational levels: from primary and secondary schools to further and higher education, proposing a schema for social media literacy (SML). Using research obtained from fieldwork observations conducted in online teaching groups, surveys, and in-depth interviews with teachers and educators on the topic of social media and education, chapters interrogate the historical relationship between educator and learner, and use the frame of expert methodology to understand what educators themselves consider important about social media and education relative to their sectors. Bringing together current literature from education, learning and media technologies, along with longstanding debates around technological influence, chapters also draw on audience and communication studies, psychology and arts and humanities at a time when many different disciplines are trying to understand what social media means to our society. This interdisciplinary volume will be of great interest to academics, researchers and postgraduates in the fields of technology in education, media literacy, and critical digital media. Practitioners involved in the sociology of education will also find the book of use.

by Praveen Kumar Donta Abhishek Hazra Lauri LovénThe book is structured into thirteen chapters; each comes with its own dedicated contributions and future research directions. Chapter 1 introduces IoT and the use of Edge computing, particularly cloud computing, and mobile edge computing. This chapter also mentions the use of edge computing in various real-time applications such as healthcare, manufacturing, agriculture, and transportation. Chapter 2 motivates mathematical modeling for federated learning systems with respect to IoT and its applications. Further Chapter 3 extends the discussion of federated learning for IoT, which has emerged as a privacy-preserving distributed machine learning approach. Chapter 4 provides various machine learning techniques in Industrial IoT to deliver rapid and accurate data analysis, essential for enhancing production quality, sustainability, and safety. Chapter discusses the potential role of data-driven technologies, such as Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, and Deep Learning, focuses on their integration with IoT communication technologies. Chapter 6 presents the requirements and challenges to realize IoT deployments in smart cities, including sensing infrastructure, Artificial Intelligence, computing platforms, and enabling communications technologies such as 5G networks. To highlight these challenges in practice, the chapter also presents a real-world case study of a city-scale deployment of IoT air quality monitoring within Helsinki city. Chapter 7 uses digital twins within smart cities to enhance economic progress and facilitate prompt decision-making regarding situational awareness. Chapter 8 provides insights into using Multi-Objective reinforcement learning in future IoT networks, especially for an efficient decision-making system. Chapter 9 offers a comprehensive review of intelligent inference approaches, with a specific emphasis on reducing inference time and minimizing transmitted bandwidth between IoT devices and the cloud. Chapter 10 summarizes the applications of deep learning models in various IoT fields. This chapter also presents an in-depth study of these techniques to examine new horizons of applications of deep learning models in different areas of IoT. Chapter 11 explores the integration of Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) into IoT systems. It delves into the potential benefits, challenges, and practical considerations of incorporating QKD into IoT networks. In chapter 12, a comprehensive overview regarding the current state of quantum IoT in the context of smart healthcare is presented, along with its applications, benefits, challenges, and prospects for the future. Chapter 13 proposes a blockchain-based architecture for securing and managing IoT data in intelligent transport systems, offering advantages like immutability, decentralization, and enhanced security.
Learning Technologies and Globalization: Pedagogical Frameworks and Applications (SpringerBriefs in Educational Communications and Technology)
by Nada Dabbagh Angela D. Benson André Denham Roberto Joseph Maha Al-Freih Ghania Zgheib Helen Fake Zhetao GuoThis brief describes the evolutionary and global impact of the techno-social transformation on learning technologies in terms of emerging pedagogical frameworks and applications. it provides examples of such applications in higher education, K-12, and the workplace, across the globe. The transformation and diffusion of ICT into an ever-present and accessible phenomenon is fundamentally shaping human activity and culture, changing human identity, and redefining globalization. Global activities have widened, intensified, and accelerated as a result of ICT integration generating a new awareness of the world as a techno-social environment. This emergent global environment is introducing unprecedented socio-economic opportunities; however, it is also bringing new risks and challenges, particularly as this relates to learning technologies, most especially in higher education contexts.

Learning Technologies in the Workplace
by Donald H TaylorKnowledge was once power - difficult to find, slow to transmit and coveted. Now we can access almost the sum total of human information with a swipe of our thumbs. The impact on the knowledge economy has been vast, leaving learning and development (L&D) professionals wondering how to keep pace. Many organizations naturally turn to technology to ensure workplace learning at scale and at speed, but stumble when it comes to successfully deploying and using it. Learning Technologies in the Workplace examines 16 years of learning technology implementations to find the secrets behind the most successful. Examples in the book from the Hershey Company and BP, airlines, tech companies and manufacturers point to four common factors. Successful learning technology teams all have APPA: a clear aim, a people focus, a wide perspective and a pragmatic, can-do attitude. Learning Technologies in the Workplace gives readers practical pointers for each of these four points, helping them implement and use learning technologies well, with particular emphasis on the essential skill of identifying stakeholders and winning their support.

Learning the Virtual Life: Public Pedagogy in a Digital World
by Peter Pericles TrifonasDigital technologies have transformed cultural perceptions of learning and what it means to be literate, expanding the importance of experience alongside interpretation and reflection. Learning the Virtual Life offers ways to consider the local and global effects of digital media on educational environments, as well as the cultural transformations of how we now define learning and literacy. While some have welcomed the educational challenges of digital culture and emphasized its possibilities for individual emancipation and social transformation in the new information age, others accuse digital culture of absorbing its recipients in an all-pervasive virtual world. Unlike most accounts of the educational and cultural consequences of digital culture, Learning the Virtual Life presents a neutral, advanced introduction to the key issues involved with the integration of digital culture and education. This edited collection presents international perspectives on a wide range of issues, and each chapter combines upper-level theory with "real-world" practice, making this essential reading for all those interested in digital media and education.
