Dionysios Politis, Petros Stagiopoulos, Veljko Aleksi
R5,090 Discovery Miles 50 900 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Educational TV in the post-war years was a cornerstone for delivering high-quality knowledge over a geographically-dispersed and culturally-segregated public.

Advanced Technologies and Standards for Interactive Educational Television: Emerging Research and Opportunities is a critical scholarly publication that examines the concept of promoting learning through mass communication through the use of extended augmentation and visualization interaction methodologies and the deployment of wide-area collaborative practices. Featuring a range of topics such as gamification, mobile technology, and digital pedagogy, this book is ideal for communications specialists, media producers, audiovisual engineers, broadcasters, computer programmers, legal experts, STEM educators, professors, teachers, academicians, researchers, policymakers, and students.

Literacy is a skill for all time, for all people. It is an integral part of our lives, whether we are students or adult professionals. Giving all educators the breadth of knowledge and practical tools that help students strengthen their literacy skills is the focus of Read, Write, Lead. Drawing on her experience as a mentor teacher, reading specialist, instructional coach, and staff developer, author Regie Routman offers time-tested advice on how to develop a schoolwide learning culture that leads to more effective reading and writing across the curriculum. She explains how every school-including yours-can: Implement instructional practices that lead to better engagement and achievement in reading and writing for all students, from kindergarten through high school, including second-language and struggling learners. Build Professional Literacy Communities of educators working together to create sustainable school change through professional learning based on shared beliefs. Reduce the need for intervention through daily practices that ensure success, even for our most vulnerable learners. Embed the language of productive feedback in responsive instruction, conferences, and observations in order to accelerate learning for students, teachers, and leaders. In their own voices, teachers, principals, literacy specialists, and students offer real-life examples of changes that led to dramatic improvement in literacy skills and-perhaps just as important-increased joy in teaching and learning. Scattered throughout the book are ""Quick Wins""-ideas and actions that can yield positive, affirming results while tackling the tough work of long-term change.

Gender studies in the professional realm has long been a heavily researched field, with many feminist texts studying topics including the wage gap and family life. However, female administration in higher education remains largely understudied, particularly on the influence of personal, professional, and societal factors on women. There is a need for studies that seek to understand how gender intersects with the multiple dimensions of women leaders' personhoods, such as family status, marital status, age, race, ethnicity, and sexual orientation, to inform women's career path experiences and leadership aspirations. Challenges and Opportunities for Women in Higher Education Leadership is a pivotal reference source that provides vital research on the specific challenges, issues, strategies, and solutions that are associated with diverse leadership in higher education. While highlighting topics such as educational administration, leader mentorship, and professional promotion, this publication explores evidence-based professional practice for women in higher education who are currently in or are seeking positions of leadership, as well as the methods of nurturing women in administrative positions. This book is ideally designed for educators, researchers, academicians, scholars, policymakers, educational administrators, graduate-level students, and pre-service teachers seeking current research on the state of educational leadership in regard to gender.

Children of the post-industrial society must achieve financial status by their own efforts sustained from early periods life and are supposed to be equipped with various qualities, both in terms of formal and informal education and extracurricular and leisure activities. Contemporary children almost inherently know how to use the devices of information technology, and through these devices, they encounter ideas, languages, etc. that are different from the ones immediately experienced within their social frame. Consequently, students themselves demand new inclusive teaching practices that expose them to global cultures.

While highlighting topics including global economics, multicultural teaching, and education differentiation, this book is ideally designed for teachers, sociologists, school administrators, curriculum designers, course developers, academics, researchers, and students seeking current research on the interrelationship between children, education, and society.

Information technology has had a profound effect on almost every aspect of our lives including the way we purchase products, communicate with others, receive health care services, and deliver education and training. It has also had a major impact on humanresource management (HR) processes, and it has transformed the way that we recruit, select, motivate, and retain employees (Gueutal & Stone, 2005; Kavanagh, Thite, & Johnson, 2015). For example, some estimates indicated that 100 % of large organizations now use web-based recruiting (Sierra-Cedar, 2016-2017), and over half of the training conducted in America is delivered using technology-based methods (American Society for Training and Development, 2015). Results of a survey by the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) (2002) revealed that technology is one of the major drivers of change in today's HR departments. In spite of the increased use of technology in the field of HR, relatively little research has examined the acceptance andeffectiveness of electronic human resource management (eHRM) methods. As a consequence, practitioners are implementing these new systems without the benefit of research. Thus, the primary purpose of this issue is to review the results of research on a number of important eHRM practices including e-recruitment, e-selection, gamification, esocialization, e-learning, and e-performance management. It also considers how the problems associated with cyberdeviance in organizations. The chapters in thisseries should be extremely beneficial for HR researchers and practitioners who are employing these new systems.
