Technology has developed at a tremendous rate since the turn of the
century, but educational practice has not kept pace. Traditional
teaching practices still predominate in many educational settings,
and educators are often intimidated by new technology. However, as
tragic as the COVID-19 pandemic has been, it has caused many people
to rethink education and opportunities provided by new technologies
for effective teaching and learning. How can educational
communities of practice be reimagined to support a growth mindset
for learning? This volume explores innovative visions for
21st century learning. The content explores the experiences
of teachers with new technology, presents research studies that
highlight effective strategies and technologies, and shares lessons
learned from a unique researcher-practitioner mentoring model.
Educational approaches that worked well, challenges that were
difficult to overcome, and potential benefits of effective
technology integration will encourage readers to reimagine
education and implement practices that can strengthen the future of
online education.
As technology becomes increasingly integrated into our society,
cultural expectations and needs are changing. Social understanding,
family roles, organizational skills, and daily activities are all
adapting to the demands of ever-present technology, causing changes
in human brain, emotions, and behaviors. An understanding of the
impact of technology upon our lives is essential if we are to
adequately educate children for the future and plan for meaningful
learning environments for them. Mind, Brain and Technology provides
an overview of these changes from a wide variety of perspectives.
Designed as a textbook for students in the fields and
interdisciplinary areas of psychology, neuroscience, technology,
computer science, and education, the book offers insights for
researchers, professionals, educators, and anyone interested in
learning more about the integration of mind, brain and technology
in their lives. The book skilfully guides readers to explore
alternatives, generate new ideas, and develop constructive plans
both for their own lives and for future educational needs.
