This is the second book in the series of Life Lessons & Tales of Little MisFit. The first book, Life Isn't Always What It Seems, is the winner of the Fall 2020 Pinnacle Achievement Award in the Young Adult genre and the Top Ten Finalist for the 2021 Author Elite Award in Middle Grades/Children's Category. Book 1 also has more than two dozen five-star Amazon reviews (including a UAE book newsletter). One reviewer said that the book is "for the child in each of us." Another: "It's a laugh-out-loud, fun read." Most reviewers indicated that they cannot wait to read book 2 in this series. The life lesson in book 2 is: "Life Isn't Always Fair." This book is written for children, young adults and adults who are young at heart along with those who have found themselves to be a "MisFit" at some point or situation in their lives. In Book 2, Ivy Sue (Little MisFit - LMF) learns that "Life Isn't Always Fair," when she is punished by her teacher for doing something that she did not do. The teacher tells her that she had probably done things before that she didn't get punished for and that it's time she learned the lesson that "Life Isn't Always Fair." LMF decides to use humour to get back at her teacher and from her tales and antics, we see how she learns to handle this important life lesson. Through challenging and unfair situations, LMF shows us that it's possible to move forward in life and learn to make the best of most situations and opportunities that come our way, even when "Life Isn't Always Fair!"

This is an open access book. The COVID-19 pandemic in the last two years has influenced how educational system works. Online learning became the primal policy taken by all institutions in the world to lower the risk of the virus spread. Despite the drawbacks of the online learning, teachers and students were accustomed with the distant learning through web meetings, Learning Management Systems (LMS) and other online learning platforms. In that time, topics under digital learning and education 5.0 were the main stakes in academic disseminations. This year some institutions start to conduct their teaching and learning process classically as before the pandemic, others are still continuing online and not few are in hybrid. This leaves a question: what learning reform should be made in post-pandemic era? This conference invites researchers, experts, teachers and students to discuss the coping solutions of the question. It is important for them to contribute to the understanding of re-imaging online education for better futures, innovative learning design, new skills for living and working in new times, global challenge of education, learning and teaching with blended learning, flipped learning, integrating life skills for students in the curriculum, developing educators for the future distance learning, humanities learning in the digital era, assessment and measurement in education, challenges and transformations in education, technology in teaching and learning, new learning and teaching models. Not limited to these, scholars may add another interesting topic related to learning reform in post-pandemic era to present.
