Bildung in the Digital Age explores the challenges and potentials of digitalization for educational theory and practice and identifies how the pedagogical concept of Bildung can be used to meet these demands. Discussing the educational landscape of a pandemic and post-pandemic world, the book describes how digitalization changes the media foundation of learning and teaching. It further raises questions of how we could think about Bildung in a digitalized world, how Bildung-based online teaching and learning can be implemented, and whether it is possible to understand Bildung and its emphasis on individual freedom and self-determination as a counter-concept to digital surveillance capitalism. The book will appeal to academics, researchers, and postgraduate students in the fields of digital learning, educational theory, and media education.

This book offers a detailed theoretical analysis of the fields of learning and management in the digital age. Taking an interdisciplinary approach, it opens a dialogue between agile management theory and agile learning theory. The book argues that there is a tension between participative and action-orientated approaches on the one hand and neoliberal enclosure of the actor on the other hand. It takes this as an opportunity for interdisciplinary dialogue between learning theories and management concepts. With contributions from a range of international experts, chapters discuss the need for suitable theoretical, epistemological, and ethical foundations as well as practice-orientated methods for learning and management to implement appropriate strategies and meet educational challenges. This highly topical book will be of great interest to academics, postgraduate students, and researchers in the fields of digital learning, educational theory, management theory, and communication studies.

Communication and Learning in an Age of Digital Transformation provides cross-disciplinary perspectives on digitization as social transformation and its impact on communication and learning. This work presents openness within its interpretation of the digital and its impact on learning and communication, acknowledging historical contexts and contemporary implications emerging from discourse on digitization. The book presents a triangulation of different research perspectives. These perspectives, which range from digital resistance parks and cyber-religious questions to cultural-scientific media-theoretical reflections, point to the performative openness of the analysis. The book represents an interdisciplinary approach and opens a space for understanding the social complexity of digital transformations in teaching and learning. This book will be of great interest to academics, post graduate students and researchers in the field of digital learning, communication and education research.

The book deals with the digital turn in higher education: One aim of this book is to address the challenge by providing a multi-disciplinary, international perspective on higher education during the digital turn. It presents epistemological, ethical and theoretical approaches, and best practice examples, from universities in different countries using different learning strategies. The book can be understood as an international and interdisciplinary collection providing heuristic strategies for handling the digitalization of higher education in theory and in practice.

The essays in this volume all seek to answer the following broad question: How can philosophical, educational and critical approaches to corporate communications deepen our understanding of learning in the digital age? The authors reflect on how particular approaches, learning strategies, philosophers or critical theorists can advance the theory and practice of teaching and learning in the digital age. Each essay discusses key concepts from their work and relates those concepts to a particular problem within learning and teaching in the digital age.

The book deals with precarity within the digital age and focuses on media change and social insecurity. Change arising from digital developments takes place on micro-, meso- and meta-levels and have always social implications. Concepts such as Social Media, eHealth and Digital Capitalism, Informational Capitalism and Social Exclusion, Digital Globalization and Motility frame the social dynamics and implications of changes in digital media. These changes evoke a double precarity or stable unstability: Social practices throughout the diverse societal fields are questioned through the media change which leads to a digital age. The ongoing media change requires new social practices - what evokes precarity as an ongoing insecurity how to face the `new digital world.As a socio-economic phenomenon and effect of neoliberal policy precarity changes life planning and self-narrations of the affected individuals. Precarity and neoliberal subjection-processes manifest in the digital age and are performatively re-produced by the way new media are used.

Der vorliegende Band liefert eine praxisorientierte und theoretisch fundierte Auseinandersetzung mit den Moeglichkeiten von E-Learning. Theorie und Praxis des digital gestutzten Lernens werden integrativ analysiert und anwendungsorientiert vermittelt. So werden lerntheoretisch fundierte Ansatze zur didaktischen Gestaltung von digital gestutzten Lehr-/Lernveranstaltungen dargestellt wie Strategien zum Qualitatsmanagement vermittelt.

Vor dem Hintergrund kultureller Diversitat und dem medialen Wandel ergibt sich die Herausforderung, die Begriffe Bildung und Lernen theoretisch zu diskutieren und deren Anforderungsprofile im Kontext padagogischer Praxis neu auszuloten. Der Sammelband thematisiert feldubergreifend in den Bereichen Erwachsenenbildung, Soziale Arbeit, Medienpadagogik und Hochschulbildung die Effekte der Digitalisierung und zeigt auf, wie ein diversitatssensibler Umgang mit Bildung und Lernen im Kontext gesellschaftlicher Transformationen gelingen kann.

Im Zentrum dieses Buches steht die Fragestellung, wie forschendes Lernen angesichts eines sich beschleunigenden medialen Wandels und dem Phanomen der Globalisierung angemessen verstanden und eingesetzt werden kann. Es werden erkenntnistheoretische Thesen entfaltet, bildungs- sowie medientheoretische Positionen in Bezug auf das forschende Lernen diskutiert, methodische Fragestellungen anwendungsorientiert eroertert sowie Good Practice-Beispiele vorgestellt.

Der vorliegende Band liefert eine kurze und praxisorientierte Einfuhrung in Beratungs- und Kommunikationsstrategien. Dabei stehen loesungsorientierte Formen der Kommunikation sowie praxisorientierten UEbungen im Fokus der Darstellung. So werden v.a.
