Book Description
The rushed development of information and communication technologies and their impact on the world of learning in the last decade have profoundly changed the paradigms, scenarios and values at all levels of education. The professionalization of tools and practices, in addition to the consolidation of academic and practical knowledge, has been a major continuing issue throughout these years. The annual conferences of the largest European professional community in distance and e-learning have been setting the landmarks in this process. The selection from this unique knowledge pool demonstrates the deepening and consolidation of knowledge and experience. This book presents the developments in the field of open, distance and e-learning, through new technologies, methodologies and tools, which have profoundly changed the paradigms, scenarios and values at all levels of education over the last decade.

"This book problematizes the construct of distance second language learning, in order to see what it covers, if its parameters are well-defined, what theories can guide the actions of the participants, and whether a model of action can be suggested with a method to validate the model"--Provided by publisher.

Book Description
Impossible aujourd'hui d'ignorer, parmi les différentes modalités d'accès au savoir, celles qu'on regroupe sous le terme de " formations ouvertes et à distance ". Elles connaissent un essor constant, stimulées par des besoins de formation toujours accrus et transformées par un ensemble d'approches pédagogiques et de supports techniques différents de ceux qui ont caractérisé les " cours par correspondance ", puis " l'enseignement à distance " pendant plusieurs décennies. La convergence des activités d'enseignement et d'apprentissage à distance et en face-à-face renouvelle les dispositifs et l'irruption d'Internet les fait évoluer vers un " e-learning " dont les contours restent à préciser. Mais que recouvrent ces notions ? Comment ces pratiques se sont-elles construites ? Que représentent-elles aujourd'hui en France et dans le monde, en termes d'institutions et d'effectifs d'inscrits ? Quels rôles y jouent les médias et les technologies ? Comment et dans quelle mesure modifient-elles effectivement la fonction enseignante et la situation des apprenants ? Telles sont les questions auxquelles cet ouvrage tente d'apporter des éléments de réponse, à travers l'histoire des formations ouvertes et à distance et de la terminologie qui s'y rapporte, les organismes qui les proposent, les ressources qu'elles utilisent et les questions qu'elles soulèvent. Il s'adresse aux responsables de formation et formateurs qui s'intéressent à ces nouveaux modes de formation et sont soucieux de mieux les connaître et/ou de les mettre-en œuvre. Il concerne également tous ceux, étudiants, universitaires et chercheurs, ou simples curieux, qui désirent comprendre les modifications du système éducatif qui s'opèrent sous la pression des " nouvelles " technologies de l'information et de la communication.

Book Description
The different forms of telepresence in education, in distance learning, in student support, in the use of learning environments or even at the heart of robot systems, are developed in universities and higher education facilities specializing in professional training. They constitute opportunities to reform arguments and give rise to important questions: how should we think about the hierarchy of presence and absence in these techniques in order to make possible “the presence of the absent”? What is the effect on mediation processes? On the perception of the body and on identity? How does it transform collaborative work? Telepresence in Training brings together research that attempts to answer these questions by using studies and practical supports from higher education, with regards to teacher training and telepresence robots in France, Belgium, Switzerland and Quebec.

Book Description
This book provides glimpses into contemporary research in information systems & technology, learning, artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning, and security and how it applies to the real world, but the ideas presented also span the domains of telehealth, computer vision, the role and use of mobile devices, brain–computer interfaces, virtual reality, language and image processing and big data analytics and applications. Great research arises from asking pertinent research questions. This book reveals some of the authors’ “beautiful questions” and how they develop the subsequent “what if” and “how” questions, offering readers food for thought and whetting their appetite for further research by the same authors.

Book Description
Allowing learners to take some responsibility may seem obvious yet what is actually afforded to them, and how this process works, remains difficult to grasp. It is therefore essential to study the real objects of devolution and the roles played by the subjects involved. Devolution and Autonomy in Education questions the concept of devolution, introduced into the field of education in the 1980s from disciplinary didactics, and described in Guy Brousseau’s Theory of Didactical Situations in Mathematics as: the act by which the teacher makes the student take responsibility for a learning situation (adidactic) or problem and accepts the consequences of this transfer. The book revisits this concept through a variety of subject areas (mathematics, French, physical education, life sciences, digital learning, play) and educational domains (teaching, training, facilitation). Using these intersecting perspectives, this book also examines the purpose and timeline of the core process for thinking about autonomy and empowerment in education.

Book Description
Despite the massive potential of distance learning on the internet, the field of distance training is little known or understood. This guide addresses this knowledge gap and: *presents research into four models of distance education, into which it is claimed nearly all provision world-wide falls *provides a global overview of distance education and training *examines case studies of distance education establishments providing insight into their structure and advantages *challenges the premise that distance training lacks academic exellence and status *appraises the role of distance education as a tool for employers to provide more effective and efficient training for employees. Born in the nineteenth century, distance training came of age in the twentieth century. Desmond Keegan presents an overview of distance training from its inception and looks forward to the innovations of the future.
