Understanding how to prepare transformative learning sessions and
courses and design an environment for prospective online learners
is a critical, as it facilitates the transfer of information,
knowledge and learning from theoretical forms to real life
experiences. Transformative Learning and Online Education:
Aesthetics, Dimensions and Concepts provides an understanding and
comprehension of aesthetics and its importance in transformative
online learning. Using frameworks and cases, this reference
attempts to construct a more complete understanding of how the art
of learning is considered and knowledge is transferred from the
cyber to the real world.
Scientific communication (Sci-Com) is a part of information science
and the sociology of science that studies researchers' use of
formal and informal information channels as well as their
communicative roles. It also covers the utilization of the formal
publication system and similar issues. Within the scientific
community, much attention has focused on improving communications
between scientists, policymakers, and the public. Sci-Com is an
important area of research in meeting these needs. The use of
communication methods to portray information clearly, concisely,
and effectively, whether that be through presentations, writing, or
other approaches, is an essential area of interest within the
community. Improving Scientific Communication for Lifelong Learners
seeks to improve scientific writing and speaking skills for
lifelong learning researchers by developing an adaptive and
responsive open and distance application according to universal
design principles. The book will focus on the efforts that are
centered on improving the content, substantiality, accessibility,
and delivery of scientific communications, and to convey clear
information to an audience, so its members can understand, use, and
build on the information portrayed. The chapters highlight specific
areas such as design thinking, distance learning, educational
technologies, student success and motivation, and the design of
educational environments and learning communities. This book is a
valuable reference tool for teachers, academics, communication
specialists, students, researchers, developers, and R&D
professionals from various fields such as distance learning, online
learning, accreditation, qualitative and quantitative research,
transhumanism and learning, computer engineering, sociology, and
more.
One of the ways in which distance education is capable of reaching
online learners is the basis and method of meta-communication.
Therefore, it is important to understand how to design reflective
online conversations and how to implement a diverse milieu for
prospective online learners so that they are able to transfer their
information, knowledge, and learning from theoretical forms to real
life experiences. Meta-Communication for Reflective Online
Conversations: Models for Distance Education s discusses the
potential of meta-communication models for building and managing
reflective online conversations among distance learners. This book
unites models for meta-communication, distance education, and
reflective online conversations and can serve as a course
supplement for studies in distance education, online education,
reflective online education, and meta-communication.
As a movement, transhumanism aims to upgrade the human body through
science, constantly pushing back the limits of a person by using
cutting-edge technologies to fix the human body and upgrade it
beyond its natural abilities. Transhumanism can not only change
human habits, but it can also change learning practices. By
improving human learning, it improves the human organism beyond
natural and biological limits. The Handbook of Research on Learning
in the Age of Transhumanism is an essential research publication
that discusses global values, norms, and ethics that relate to the
diverse needs of learners in the digital world and addresses future
priorities and needs for transhumanism. The book will identify and
scrutinize the needs of learners in the age of transhumanism and
examine best practices for transhumanist leaders in learning.
Featuring topics such as cybernetics, pedagogy, and sociology, this
book is ideal for educators, trainers, instructional designers,
curriculum developers, professionals, researchers, academicians,
policymakers, and librarians.
Cyberculture is a particularly complex issue. It is seen as a
fantastic meeting point of classic philosophers with postmodern
theorists, politicians with community engineers, contemporary
sophists with software engineers, and artists with rhetoricians.
Today, cyberculture is identified highly with new media and digital
rhetoric and could be used to create a comprehensive map of modern
culture. Present and Future Paradigms of Cyberculture in the 21st
Century is a comprehensive research publication that explores the
influence of the internet and internet culture on society as a
whole. Highlighting a wide range of topics such as digital media,
activism, and psychology, this book is ideal for academicians,
researchers, sociologists, psychologists, anthropologists, and
students.
Instructional quality can make or break the learning experience,
especially in digital environments where the expressional nuances
of interpersonal communication are lost. The most effective
distance education instructors and experts are those who recognize
the educational needs of students and are able to address those
needs through creative use of the technological tools available to
them. Identification, Evaluation, and Perceptions of Distance
Education Experts explores the current and future trends, needs,
and priorities that affect the development of distance education in
a postmodern world. This premier reference work will be of
significance to those interested in online learning, teaching and
training, communication, and education across multiple sectors such
as universities, colleges, schools, profit/non-profit
e-organizations, and e-commerce.
Novel trends and innovations have enhanced contemporary educational
environments. When applied properly, these computing advances can
create enriched learning opportunities for students. Mobile
Technologies and Augmented Reality in Open Education is a pivotal
reference source for the latest academic research on the
integration of interactive technology and mobile applications in
online and distance learning environments. Highlighting scholarly
perspectives across numerous topics such as wearable technology,
instructional design, and flipped learning, this book is ideal for
educators, professionals, practitioners, academics, and graduate
students interested in the role of augmented reality in modern
educational contexts.
Blockchain relies on distributed databases that give an alterable
and semipublic record of digital transactions. Blockchain in
learning should address theoretical, practical, and technical
issues, but it must also consider the philosophy behind interactive
blockchain in learning. While the applications of blockchain have
been the subject of serious academic research, there must be more
continuous and multicultural attention paid to the impact of the
latest management, communication, pedagogy, technology, and
evaluation-based developments of blockchain in learning. Blockchain
Technology Applications in Education is an essential scholarly
publication that scrutinizes how open universities establish a
blockchain network for decentralized learning. This book will
explore a variety of new management models, communicational
actions, pedagogical approaches, new technologies, and evaluation
models. There will be new trends, patterns, and customs of
blockchain in learning drawn from the distinctive improvements in
learning milieus. Highlighting a range of topics such as corporate
education, lifelong learning, and social media, this book is
essential for academicians, curriculum designers, instructional
designers, IT consultants, administrators, researchers, and
students.
