Aimed at business strategists, policy makers, researchers and adult
learners, this book has an Asian perspective on business
sustainability and is about understanding how recent developments
and future actions in one part of the world will have a global
impact. The book magnifies the concept of so-called 'globalisation'
and examines the topic of business sustainability from a broad and
integrated approach to business: encapsulating people, prosperity
and the planet. Furthermore, it acknowledges the contributions,
challenges and potential of not only the big corporate houses, but
also the smaller ones, in this situation. Chapters discuss the
benefits organisations can attain with better governance, and
social and environmental practices are also analysed.
Advances in students' educational experiences are regularly
studied, documented, and improved upon. However, to provide the
best foundation for students, professional educators must also
continue their own education in order to perfect their teaching
abilities. Personalized Professional Learning for Educators:
Emerging Research and Opportunities is an advanced scholarly
reference source that discusses the most effective methods and
techniques that can provide educators with a strong path for
continuing their education. Featuring insights on relevant topics
such as digital learning, educational coaching, personalized
learning, and pedagogical practices, this publication is an ideal
resource for professional educators, students, and researchers
interested in upcoming trends in teacher education.
Emotional processes are increasingly studied in psychology, whether
through their modes of expression or through their effect on
cognitive processes. While the theorization of the link between
emotional and cognitive processes has varied over the centuries,
the impact of emotions on cognitive functions is now undeniable and
is supported by experimental arguments. Psychological processes are
currently considered necessary for, or influenced by, the emergence
of emotions. Learning is at the heart of individual development and
involves different cognitive processes; the study of the emotional
processes at work in a learning situation must of course not be
overlooked. This book presents the contributions of different
disciplines of psychology in understanding the role of emotional
processes in learning situations, from a developmental and
whole-life perspective.
Ethics of Inclusion captures fairness and social justice for all
from an ethical perspective in our post-pandemic world. The book
discusses inequality in Healthcare, Economics & Finance,
Education, Digitalization, and the Environment, in order to
envision economics of diversity and a transition to a more
inclusive society. A wide-ranging approach addresses issues of
inequality in access to innovations such as telemedicine and
artificial intelligence, economic gains of robotics, and big data
insights. A rising performance gap between the finance sector and
the real economy opens in the post-COVID-19 era, with
system-inherent inequality, given elevated inflation levels and
disparate impacts of low interest rate regimes around the globe.
Education offers social transfer hubs and inclusion potential for
societal advancement and international development. The transition
to a greener economy is addressed in an analysis of the Green New
Deal and European Green Deal including the Sustainable Finance
Taxonomy. The book sets out a hopeful agenda for equality and
social justice to deliver a post-pandemic Renaissance.
