    Book SynopsisThe world of learning and teaching is at a watershed; confronted by challenges to previous educational models. One learning future lies in impactful, purposeful, active online activities, or e-tivities', that keep learners engaged, motivated, and participating. Grounded in the author's action research, E-tivities, 2nd Edition assuredly illustrates how technologies shape and enhance learning and teaching journeys.  In this highly practical book, Gilly Salmon maintains her exceptional reputation, delivering another powerful guide for academics, teaching professionals, trainers, designers and developers in all disciplines. This popular text has been comprehensively updated; addressing key technological changes since 2002, offering fresh case studies and Carpe Diem' - a unique approach to learning design workshops. Readers will find E-tivities, 2nd Edition a wonderful resource on its own or as a companion to the author's bestselling e-ModeTrade ReviewIncorporating this content into graduate programs is a key component in creating change, since current and future faculty members and policymakers must have the tools to deconstruct and challenge dominant discourses if there can be any hope of understanding the power and consequences involved in applying this knowledge to policy creation. - Casandra E. Harper, Feminist Formations “At a time when higher education is struggling to take advantage of the many technological innovations available to it, this timely and thought-provoking second edition of E-tivities envisions a new way to deliver curriculum. The book is written in a user friendly and accessible style, challenging thinking not to merely shift from ‘traditional’ teaching to technologically supported learning, but to re-think the learning process and conceptualise content and delivery differently, in an e-form. Making a sound conceptual argument, the author makes exceptional use of case studies and guided thinking for the development of e-tivities, including the use of open educational resources. This is a must read not only for the practitioner wanting to change, but for institutional leaders as well.”—Craig Mahoney, Chief Executive, Higher Education Academy, UK "Everywhere I go in the world I meet people grateful for the first edition of this book. With even more e-tivities and wise advice, built on years of experience, this second edition will have us all going back for more, to further improve our online teaching and support."—Diana Laurillard, Professor of Learning with Digital Technology, London Knowledge Lab, Institute of Education, UK "If the collective wisdom of the past few decades of online learning could be distilled and condensed into one easy-to-read book, it would be this one. As Gilly Salmon shows, there is no end to the technological tools that can be incorporated into one’s online courses and programs. However, there is also no need to be lost, frustrated, or uncertain when working in online environments. The second edition of E-tivities is a powerful guide, which lays out an immense set of possibilities while offering a framework in which to make sense of them all."—Curt Bonk, President of CourseShare, LLC, and Professor of Instructional Systems Technology in the School of Education at Indiana University, USA "Gilly Salmon's challenge for us to be part of the Quantum Generation of learning design frames the field’s biggest question: what constitutes and redefines effective learning in the digital age? In a remarkably concise way, Salmon overviews the enormous changes in the decade since her first edition before outlining many helpful approaches. This new edition speaks to all those interested in making sense of the opportunities and potential pitfalls of learning in the digital age. This is a must-read!"—David Sadler, Deputy Vice Chancellor for Students & Education, University of Tasmania, Australia Table of ContentsPreface Part 1: Introducing e-tivities 1.

    Book SynopsisData Analytics and Adaptive Learning offers new insights into the use of emerging data analysis and adaptive techniques in multiple learning settings. In recent years, both analytics and adaptive learning have helped educators become more responsive to learners in virtual, blended, and personalized environments. This set of rich, illuminating, international studies spans quantitative, qualitative, and mixed-methods research in higher education, K12, and adult/continuing education contexts. By exploring the issues of definition and pedagogical practice that permeate teaching and learning and concluding with recommendations for the future research and practice necessary to support educators at all levels, this book will prepare researchers, developers, and graduate students of instructional technology to produce evidence for the benefits and challenges of data-driven learning.Trade Review"This book is an essential guide to the promise and practice of data analytics and adaptive learning in higher education. These pioneers and practitioners share valuable insights all institutions can use to enhance learning and student success."—Diana G. Oblinger, Ph.D., President Emeritus, EDUCAUSE"Impacts on learning we called overdetermined can now be parsed but need an informed judgment rising to the complexities involved. Data Analytics and Adaptive Learning, a collection of the very best thinking about both, provides just that, rendering the (potentially) all-seeing and hyper-focused approaches of DA and AL fruitful, humane, transformative."—George Otte, former University Director of Academic Technology, The City University of New York"At last: a book by education experts about the use of digital Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) not only for lowering the friction in data, but for processing information to help teachers and students. This can be the beginning of a more radical change in education."—Anders Norberg, Coordinator of the ERASMUS+ALBATTS Blueprint project for development of innovative education for the emerging European battery and electromobility value chain (ERASMUS is a European Union Initiative for Education Mobility and Development)"Digital learning is the new normal in higher education. The group of experts assembled in this book share important ideas and trends related to learning analytics and adaptive learning that will surely influence all of our digital learning environments in the future."—Charles R. Graham, Professor, Department of Instructional Psychology and Technology, Brigham Young University "The concept of personalized and adaptive learning has long been touted but seldom enacted in education at scale. Data Analytics and Adaptive Learning brings together a compelling set of experts that provide novel and research informed insights into contemporary education spaces."—Professor Shane Dawson, Executive Dean Education Futures, University of South Australia"Moskal, Dziuban, and Picciano challenge the reader to keep the student at the center and imagine how data analytics and adaptive learning can be mutually reinforcing in closing the gap between students from different demographics."—Susan Rundell Singer, Vice President for Academic Affairs and Provost, Rollins College, former Division Director for Undergraduate Education at the National Science Foundation"We are currently living in a digital age where higher education institutions have an abundance of accessible data. This book contains a series of chapters that provide insight and strategies for using data analytics and adaptive learning to support student success and satisfaction."—Dr. Norman Vaughan, Professor of Education, Mount Royal University, Calgary, Alberta, Canada"An important book that comes at a critical moment in higher education. We are swimming in an ocean of data and this book from some of the country’s top researchers and practitioners will help us make sense of it and put it in the service of student success." —Thomas Cavanagh, Ph.D. Vice Provost for Digital Learning, University of Central Florida"Data Analytics and Adaptive Learning is an excellent addition to the canon of literature in this field. The book offers several valuable perspectives and innovative ways of approaching both new and old problems to improve organizational outcomes."—Jeffrey S. Russell, P.E., Ph.D., Dist.M.ASCE, NAC, F.NSPE, Vice Provost for Lifelong Learning, Dean for Div. of Continuing Studies, University of Wisconsin-Madison"Data is used to customize experiences from buying an item to booking travel. What about learning—a uniquely human endeavor? This book contextualizes the complex answers to that question shedding light on areas with promise: learning analytics, adaptive learning and the use of big data."—Dale Whittaker, Senior Program Officer in Post-Secondary Success, Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation"Data Analytics and Adaptive Learning presents a timely and wide-ranging consideration of the progress of adaptive learning and analytics in levelling the educational playing field, while providing necessary cautions regarding the drawing of too many conclusions in what is still a nascent area."—Frank Claffey, Chief Product Officer, Realizeit Learning"Data Analytics and Adaptive Learning provides insights and best practices from leaders in digital learning who outline considerations for strategies, change management, and effective decision making related to data. As higher education expands its work in digital learning and utilizing data for decisions, this book is a must read!"—Dr. Connie Johnson, Chancellor, Colorado Technical University"Data analytics and adaptive learning compromise two of the most relevant educational challenges. This book provides excellent research approaches and analysis to answer practical questions related to digital education involving teachers and learners"—Josep M Duart & Elsa Rodriguez, Editor-in-Chief & Editorial Manager of the International Journal of Educational technology in Higher Education, the Universitat Oberta de Catalunya (UOC)"Data, analytics, and machine learning are impacting all jobs and industries. For education, the opportunities are immense, but so are the challenges. This book provides an essential view into the possibilities and pitfalls. If you want to use data to impact learners positively, this book is a must-read."—Colm Howlin, PhD, Chief Data Scientist, ReliaQuest"Data Analytics and Adaptive Learning helps the educational community broaden its understanding of these two technology-based opportunities to enhance education, looking at very different complementary contributions.

In my opinion, the book is valuable reading for those seeking the answers to their questions."—Maria Zajac, Associate Professor (emeritus) at Pedagogical University Cracow and SGH Warsaw School of Economics, Certified Instructional Designer, Poland "Data analytics and adaptive learning platforms can direct support as needed to at-risk students, helping to create more equitable outcomes. This volume contains a timely collection of studies that examine the impact of these approaches."—John Kane, Director of the Center for Excellence in Learning and Teaching at SUNY Oswego."This book shines a spotlight on the potential for data analytics, adaptive learning and big data to transform higher education.

Their work significantly strengthens the fabric of knowledge on how adaptive learning can benefit students (and faculty)." —Dale P. Johnson, Director of Digital Innovation, University Design Institute, Arizona State University"The authors of this book convince us that the concepts of data analytics and adaptive learning are tightly integrated, and the book provides insights on different aspects related to utilization of intelligent technologies and how to approach the learning cycle at different stages." —Eli Hustad, Professor in Information Systems, The University of Agder"Student success is a fundamental mission for all educational institutions. This book explores the current opportunities within analytics, adaptive Learning, and organizational transformation to generate wide-scale and equitable learning outcomes."—John Campbell, Associate Professor, Higher Education Administration, School of Education, West Virginia University"This book brings together top scholars making the connection between data analytics and adaptive learning, all while keeping pedagogical theory on the central stage.

    Book SynopsisVirtual Humans provides a much-needed definition of what constitutes a virtual human' and places virtual humans within the wider context of Artificial Intelligence development. It explores the technical approaches to creating a virtual human, as well as emergent issues such as embodiment, identity, agency and digital immortality, and the resulting ethical challenges. The book presents an overview of current research and practice in this area, and outlines the major challenges faced by today's developers and researchers. The book examines the possibility for using virtual humans in a variety of roles, from personal assistants to teaching, coaching and knowledge management, and the book situates these discussions around familiar applications (e.g. Siri, Cortana, Alexa) and the portrayal of virtual humans within Science Fiction.Features Presents a comprehensive overview of this rapidly developing field Provides anTrade Review"This book presents an overview of the present state of play with virtual humans. Appearance, attributes, communication and intelligence are all investigated, and the architectures involved are covered in detail. If you have little knowledge of what a virtual human is, but want to find out, then this is the book for you. For researchers in the virtual human field this is a definite must." -Professor Kevin Warwick, Coventry University "David Burden and Maggi Savin-Baden’s Virtual Humans offers a thorough, research-based treatment of how digital entities with human-like features and capabilities have left the domain of science fiction and are rapidly becoming a major aspect of human culture. In their clearly-written and well-organized work, they describe the current forms and abilities of virtual humans (including smart speakers and virtual assistant systems like Siri, Alexa, and Cortana and various types of Internet-based chatbots); examine how the creation of virtual bodies, senses, and minds can be combined to create virtual humans; and consider potential developments in the nature and functionality of virtual agents across a range of timeframes from the end of the next decade to the end of the century. Significantly, the authors recognize and discuss the great ethical, moral and social implications of these technological developments which makes their work relevant and important for the social sciences and humanities as well as the domains of computing and information sciences. I certainly intend to use Virtual Humans as an assigned reading in the interdisciplinary courses I teach on the personal and social impact of leading-edge digital technologies." -Richard Gilbert, Professor of Psychology and Director of the Psychology and New Technology Research Lab, Loyola Marymount University, Los Angeles, California "Intelligent, pragmatic and insightful, Virtual Humans is an essential guide for those who want to understand the complex landscape of today’s technology when thinking about designing and building a virtual human. Helpfully, it clearly deploys a wealth of supporting analysis, case studies, research, ethical questions, and moral dilemmas and adds a refreshing dose of healthy common sense along the way." -Nicola Strong, Strong Enterprises Table of ContentsIntroduction Part I The Landscape Chapter 1 What are Virtual Humans?
