The main topic of ICLEL 2023 is "Entrepreneurship, Creativity and Education"
Education and educational systems represent a powerful source of success (or failure) for any political community. The emergence of AI and new technologies will progressively transform the labour market, leading to technological unemployment. In this scenario, promoting pedagogical strategies fostering deeper learning represents an ethical and pragmatic commitment to synchronize education with the ongoing socio-economic transformations. In line with the road ahead, the scope of the volume is to collect ideas, reflections and experiences related to deeper learning and skill development in the education environment.
The Urban Education Sourcebook on Instruction and Supervision text focuses on instructional issues and supervision within the 21st century, which can impact achievement issues for students within urban contexts. This edited text includes issues which help prepare both pre-service and in-service teachers by focusing on both the current practice considerations in the field and academic instruction issues. Some of the topics in this book include issues related to S.T.E.M., Sciences, ESL, ELA, transmedia, and afterschool programs. Additionally, this text includes a wide range of activities, key vocabulary, and suggested readings for students who take this course.
Many research studies show that the use of technology inside and outside classrooms makes teaching and learning more engaging and motivating. Technology can provide learners with endless opportunities and can improve the learning experience, simplify access to educational resources, enhance autonomous learning, meet individual learning needs, and prepare the learners for future career success when using it to foster 21st-century skills. However, the range and number of technologies currently available can yield challenges for educators if they do not know how to effectively integrate them into their teaching pedagogy. Policies, Practices, and Protocols for the Implementation of Technology Into Language Learning discusses the skills necessary for successful technology use in education and examines technology tools that assist in teaching different languages with a focus on English as a Foreign Language (EFL). Covering a range of topics such as reading, writing, and integrated language skills, this book is ideal for instructors, policymakers, administrators, researchers, practitioners, academicians, and students.
The urgent need to keep pace with the accelerating globalization of manufacturing in the 21st century has produced rapid advances in manufacturing research, development and innovation. This book presents the proceedings of the 15th International Conference on Manufacturing Research (ICMR 2017), which also incorporated the 32nd National Conference on Manufacturing Research (NCMR) and was held at the University of Greenwich, London, UK, in September 2017. The conference brings together a broad community of researchers who share the common goal of developing and managing the technologies and operations key to sustaining the success of manufacturing businesses. The book is divided into 13 parts, covering topics such as advanced manufacturing technologies (including additive, ultra-precision and nano-manufacturing); manufacturing systems (digital and cyber-physical systems); product design and development (including lifecycle management and supply-chain collaboration); information and communication (including innovation and knowledge management); and manufacturing management (including lean, sustainable and cost engineering). With its comprehensive overview of current developments, this book will be of interest to all those involved in manufacturing today.
