Online learning has become an important vehicle for teacher and
student learning. When well designed, online environments can be
very powerful in a way that is consistent with the goals of
inquiry, experimentation, investigation, reasoning, and problem
solving so learners can develop a deep understanding of a subject.
Some subjects, however, are not well suited for this type of
learning due to the need for small group collaborating and hands-on
problem solving. The Handbook of Research on Online Pedagogical
Models for Mathematics Teacher Education provides innovative
insights into technology applications and tools used in teaching
mathematics online and provides examples of online learning
environments and platforms that are suitable for meeting math
education goals of inquiry, investigation, reasoning, and problem
solving. The content within this publication examines access to
education, professional development, and web-based learning. It is
designed for teachers, curriculum developers, instructional
designers, educational software developers, IT consultants, higher
education faculty, policymakers, administrators, researchers,
academicians, and students.
Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) around the world are being
pressured to become more entrepreneurial. However, the concept of
an entrepreneurial university has remained elusive, including ideas
that range from supporting students and staff with new ventures to
encouraging partnerships between academics and entrepreneurs. New
research is needed on strategies and practices that can be
implemented by universities in order to become more innovative and
supportive. Strategies for the Creation and Maintenance of
Entrepreneurial Universities uses findings from a major EU-funded
five country project (THEI2.0) focused on enhancing the
implementation and impact of the EU-OECD's HEInnovate tool to offer
valuable strategies to help universities become more
entrepreneurial, especially in the current COVID-19 and
post-COVID-19 environments. This book's core value lies in the fact
that it draws on real experiences and practices of those in this
field, articulates key takeaway messages, and suggests potential
strategies and actions to create impact. Covering topics such as
campus incubation, policy strategies, and regional development,
this book acts as an essential resource for senior academic
leaders, academic managers, entrepreneurship/entrepreneurial
educators, incubation center managers, technology transfer
managers, researchers, students, and administrators seeking to make
their university more entrepreneurial, maintain their
entrepreneurial status, critically reflect on their current level
of entrepreneurialism, explore new opportunities to enhance their
entrepreneurial reputation, or implement strategies to consolidate
their entrepreneurial endeavors within the current challenging
environment.
Stories offer opportunities for listeners to merge the
storyteller's experiences with their own, resulting in connections
that can turn into life-changing experiences. However, when the
experience of the storyteller ceases to matter to the listener,
ideologies begin to influence the listener's view of the
storyteller. Using Narratives and Storytelling to Promote Cultural
Diversity on College Campuses is an essential research publication
that provides comprehensive research on the creation of space for
divergent narratives that detail a vast array of experiences. The
book includes qualitative studies on diversity-based projects and
video narratives that provide a comprehensive dialogue about
diversity with an emphasis on personal narratives. Highlighting a
range of topics including feminism, ethnicity, and psychosocial
development, this book is ideal for academicians, practitioners,
psychologists, sociologists, education professionals, counselors,
researchers, and students.
