The evolution of information technologies, mobile devices, social media, and the needs of students, workers, and academics has experienced rapid changes in the past several years. This complex and dynamic reality requires new forms of education delivery and teaching methodologies for academics. Old teaching practices must be refreshed to provide customized and context-adapted learning opportunities. Additionally, there are drivers, barriers, and success factors within distance and mobile learning devices and systems that need to be explored and tested.

Covering critical topics such as faculty training, online teaching, and talent management, this major reference work is ideal for government officials, industry professionals, policymakers, researchers, scholars, academicians, practitioners, instructors, and students.
