This book gathers peer-reviewed papers presented at the 1st International and Interdisciplinary Conference on Digital Environments for Education, Arts and Heritage (EARTH2018), held in Brixen, Italy in July 2018. The papers focus on interdisciplinary and multi-disciplinary research concerning cutting-edge cultural heritage informatics and engineering; the use of technology for the representation, preservation and communication of cultural heritage knowledge; as well as heritage education in digital environments; innovative experiments in the field of digital representation; and methodological reflections on the use of IT tools in various educational contexts.

Making the Most of Study Abroad prepares students for a successful study abroad experience. Although study abroad programs usually have a pre-departure orientation, most of these are only a couple hours and are not able to sufficiently cover the myriad of questions that students and their parents have about study abroad. This book is designed to fill that gap and inform the reader on many crucial elements that can make the difference between a fantastic study abroad trip and a lackluster stay. While this book is principally designed around the idea of study abroad, it can also serve as a guide for travelers planning an extended stay abroad.

This book considers the generative tension between the materiality and virtuality of walking methodologies in a/r/tography and arts-based educational research. It explores the materiality of practice—manifestations, manipulations, residues, and traces of both real and imagined experiences and events. Authors present artistic representations, renderings, artifacts, and documentations that allow for various forms of return and re-visitation of places/spaces and temporal moments. The book also investigates the digital and virtual, including video, images, media work, and emergent technologies that allow one to literally, metaphorically, affectively, and conceptually go somewhere that might be previously impossible to reach. Authors consider curricular and pedagogical implications of digital/virtual walking in relation to desire, agency, autonomy, freedom, and other issues around ethics.

This book provides insights into the development of competency-based learning approaches and specific instructional activities designed to enhance healthcare management students’ twenty-first-century skills (21CS). These skills encompass three core domains: cognitive, intra-personal, and inter-personal. The book explores how these skills can be advanced within the intricate dynamics of healthcare systems at macro, meso, and micro levels, emphasizing the imperative need for healthcare professionals to adapt to rapid technological and global changes. Structured into twelve chapters, the book begins with an overview of the complex healthcare environment, highlighting transformative changes and challenges. It then delves into the core theme of competency-based learning, showcasing a shift from traditional teaching methods to constructivist approaches that enhance real-world skills through interactive methods. This approach is crucial for fostering the necessary skills in healthcare managers and other healthcare professionals, which are increasingly vital in today's digital and dynamic medical landscape. The book serves as an extensive resource and guide for healthcare students, faculty, researchers, curriculum designers, policymakers, and current and future healthcare leaders. It offers practical methodologies, innovative teaching methods, and insightful case studies, making it a valuable reference for healthcare and pedagogical research.
