"Big Data in Education" explores the revolutionary impact of big data on the educational landscape. In this comprehensive guide, educators, administrators, policymakers, and researchers will discover how data-driven insights can enhance learning experiences, improve student outcomes, and streamline educational practices. The book begins by defining big data and its characteristics, such as volume, velocity, variety, veracity, and value. It delves into the various sources of educational data, including student information systems, learning management systems (LMS), social media, and IoT devices, as well as the methods for collecting this data.

This book demonstrates the benefits and drawbacks of using digital technology in preparing online lessons and educational activities. The experience of the last year has shown that online education is becoming a priority. This gave impetus to the creation and development of a new generation of equipment for online education. The book presents latest innovative technologies and modern digital trends in the field of information and communication technology for online education, including personalized learning, neuro-information systems, mobile learning, development of software and hardware infrastructure, and the use of robotics technologies. Key technologies for managing risk and cybersecurity, such as cloud and data security, identity and trust convolution systems, computational intelligence and cryptography techniques, malware and attack analysis, are presented. The topic of cybersecurity is one of the most important issues in the modern digital world. The results of the research on recently developed software, decision support systems, and cloud technologies make a huge contribution to the development of information technology in the context of digitalization. This book is of interest for developers of applications and programs for online education, for software and hardware suppliers who want to keep up with the times and reorient existing IT systems for use in online education.

Gifted students can exhibit extreme variance in both their abilities and their interests, yet they are often treated within schools as one homogeneous, specialized population. Personalized Learning in Gifted Education helps educators strengthen their differentiation of both instruction and services for advanced students. This book: • helps educators develop the specific gifts and talents of the gifted students they serve • demonstrates how educators can utilize the wealth of data they have at their disposal • provides a rationale and blueprint for a stronger, more personalized approach to gifted education • offers suggestions for both elementary and secondary schools. Recommendations center around five features of personalized learning: personalized learning plans, project- or problem- based learning, competency-based progression through the curriculum, criterion-referenced assessments, and multi-year mentoring.

This is an open access book. It has been two years since the COVID-19 pandemic swept across the world. This has more or less left a mark of memories and trauma for more or fewer people. This pandemic reminds people around the world that there are things that can happen without people knowing it. People start to worry and pessimistically see the uncertainty that lies in the future. To deal with this, a strategy is needed through educational innovation and social science to answer and face the challenges of uncertainty in the future. Breakthroughs in education and social science are the most strategic ways to build and enhance human capacity to solve problems, environmental and social problems. The spirit of innovation, rising from an economic downturn, the use of technology is obtained through the role of educational institutions. This can be interpreted that innovation in education and social science produces superior humans, who have good behavior, and wise humans. So that in the face of uncertainty in the post-pandemic period, humans have strategies and become more prepared. To find out more about strategies for dealing with and responding to future uncertainties after the pandemic through educational innovations and social science, it is necessary to conduct research or studies that discuss these matters and be published widely. To support this, Universitas PGRI Yogyakarta held an international conference and Call for Papers The 1st UPY International Conference on Education and Social Science (UPINCESS) “Strategies to Deal with Uncertainty through Education and Social Science Innovation” on June 15, 2022.

Universal access to high-quality education plays an important role in the building of peace, sustainable social and economic development, and intercultural dialogue. Providing research on the quality and understanding of open education allows for successful learning strategies and educational sustainability. Metasystems Learning Design of Open Textbooks: Emerging Research and Opportunities is an essential reference source that discusses the role of open education in improving the quality of education, as well as facilitating policy dialogue, knowledge sharing, and capacity building. Featuring research on topics such as design theory, competence development, and adaptive learning, this book is ideally designed for educators, academicians, education administrators, curriculum developers, and researchers seeking coverage on the functional models of open education and the diversity of open educational resources.

Throughout the educational industry the need to comprehend and navigate the profound transformations underway in the realm of continuing education remains a pressing challenge. As technological advancements accelerate at an unprecedented pace, traditional educational systems are being upended, leaving educators grappling with many questions. The emergence of digital technologies in education introduces a host of complex issues and opportunities. One such opportunity is the application of technologies that can address important issues and open new horizons for those that teach. > At the forefront of academic exploration and innovation is Embracing Technological Advancements for Lifelong Learning, a book of robust research covering an era where the digital revolution is reshaping education. This book brings insights into in-depth investigations of how digital technologies are transforming the landscape of continuing education. It delves deep into the strategies, resources, and best practices that organizations can harness to unlock the full potential of digital transformation. Covering a wide spectrum of issues, from e-learning platforms to virtual and augmented reality, artificial intelligence to mobile learning, this book is a comprehensive guide that showcases the real-world impact of digital transformation through compelling case studies and actionable ideas.

Adaptive E-learning was proposed to be suitable for students with unique profiles, particular interests, and from different domains of knowledge, so profiles may consider specific goals of the students, as well as different preferences, knowledge level, learning style, rendering psychological profile, and more. Another approach to be taken into account today is the self-directed learning. Unlike the adaptive E-learning, the Self-directed learning is related to independence or autonomy in learning; it is a logical link for readiness for E-learning, where students pace their classes according to their own needs.This book provides information on the On-Job Training and Interactive Teaching for E-learning and is divided into four sections. The first section covers motivations to be considered for E-learning while the second section presents challenges concerning E-learning in areas like Engineering, Medical education and Biological Studies. New approaches to E-learning are introduced in the third section, and the last section describes the implementation of E-learning Environments.
