Book SynopsisAs we have come to accept the duality of physical and virtual learning spaces as a permanent feature of our educational landscape, we begin to question its validity. Is this really a dichotomy, or is it a continuum? Should this be the primary dimension around which we cluster educational experiences - how does it intersect and interact with other axes, such as formal-informal, vocational-recreational, open-closed, teacher-student? How do we adapt, as teachers, learners, designers, policy makers, to this changing landscape? How do we shape it to offer an optimal learning experience? Such questions led us to conduct a series of academic and professional events on the theme of Hybrid Learning Spaces (HLS) - spaces which challenge and defy the dichotomies above. This edited book collates some of the products of that endeavor, offering a multi-vocal, interdisciplinary approach to hybridity in education. It connects practical examples, design directives and theoretical analysis, combining perspectives from technology research and development, educational theory and practice, architecture and space and product design. This book addresses researchers, practitioners, innovators and policy makers in education, technology and design, offering broad perspectives and then distilling practical insights in the form of design principles and patterns, pedagogical models, and predictions of future trends.Table of ContentsTable of contents Chapter 1 Introduction Einat Gil, Yishay Mor, Yannis Dimitriadis & Christian Köppe Part I: Into the Hybrid Chapter 2 Hybrid learning spaces - a three-fold evolving perspective Liat Eyal & Einat Gil Chapter 3 Hyper-hybrid learning spaces in higher education Rikke Toft Nørgård & Charlotta Hilli Part II: Pedagogy Chapter 4 How co-design can contribute to the ongoing development of hybrid learning spaces by empowering the users Bodil Boejer & Mie Guldbaek Broens Chapter 5 H2m pedagogy: Designing for hybrid learning in medical education Tim Fawns, Lina Markauskaite, Lucila Carvalho & Peter Goodyear Chapter 6 Covid-19 lock-down: hybrid learning cases using the lens of the Zone of Possibility John Cook & Debbie Holley Chapter 7 Socio-emotional Regulation in Collaborative Hybrid Learning Spaces of Formal–Informal Learning Mariano Velamazán, Patricia Santos & Davinia Hernández-Leo Chapter 8 Seamless hybrid science learning: streamlining the techno-pedagogical designs for wider diffusion Lung Hsiang-Wong & Chee-Kit Looi Chapter 9 Designing synchronous hybrid learning spaces: Challenges and opportunities Morten Winter Bülow Part III: Technology Chapter 10 An analysis of mobile learning tools in terms of pedagogical affordances and support to the learning activity life cycle Gerti Pishtari & María Jesús Rodríguez-Triana Chapter 11 Classroom Analytics: Telling Stories about Learning Spaces using Sensor Data Roberto Martínez-Maldonado, Lixiang Yan, Joanne Deppeler, Michael Phillips & Dragan Gaševic Part IV: Space design Chapter 12 Co-creating futures through virtual ‘BAs’ Hank Kune & Jenny Quillien Chapter 13 Creativity Flourishes Using Hybrid Spaces Patterns Anat Mor-Avi & Lennie Scott-Webber Chapter 14 Patterns for a hybrid campus Christian Kohls, Dennis Dubbert & Guido Münster Chapter 15 Dialogic teaching and the architecture of hybrid learning spaces: Alexander meets Alexander Alyson Simpson & Peter Goodyear Chapter 16 Design for balance: addressing challenges of safety, privacy and identity management in online and hybridised learning and teaching spaces Steven Warburton & Mark Perry Part V: Concluding Chapter 17 Forward Looking: Predictions for the Future of Hybrid Learning Spaces Yishay Mor, Einat Gil, Yannis Dimitriadis & Christian Köppe

Book SynopsisThis open access book focuses on making the transition from in-person, classroom education to other feasible alternative modes and methodologies to deliver education at all levels. The book presents and analyzes research questions to explore in this arena, including pedagogical issues relating to technological and infrastructure challenges, teacher professional development, issues of disparity, access and equity, and impact of government policies on education. It also provides unique opportunities and vehicles for generating scholarship that helps explain the varied educational needs, perspectives and solutions that arise during an emergency and the different roles educational institutions and educators may play during this time.Developed from a highly successful Presidential Session at the annual meeting of the Association for Educational Communications and Technology (AECT), this edited volume presents AECT and its membership as the premier organization focusing on the provision of educational communications and technology leadership. In addition, it functions as a contemporary document of this global crisis as well as a rich resource for possible future emergency scenarios in the educational arena.Table of ContentsA call out has been sent to the following authors for chapters and we are awaiting a TOC:● Xun Ge, University of Oklahoma, USA● Camille Dickson-Deane, University of Technology Sydney, Australia ● HuiChen Kung Durley, Oklahoma City Public Schools, USA ● In-sook Lee, Sejong University, South Korea ● Sahana Murthy, IIT Bombay, India ● Katsuaki Suzuki, JSET Vice President, Kumamoto University, Japan ● Yoshiko Goda, Kumamoto University, Japan ● Tomomi Takabayashi, Cyber University, Japan ● Jennifer Richardson, Purdue University, USA ● Xiaoqing Gu, ECNU, China ● Dirk Ifenthaler, University of Mannheim, Germany and Curtin University, Australia ● Jaime Sánchez, University of Chile, Chile ● Maha Bali, American University in Cairo, Egypt ● Nicola Pallitt, e/merge Africa, Rhodes University, South Africa ● Susan McKenney, University of Twente, The Netherlands ● Tamera Celeste Hudnell, Technology Integrated Learning, USA ● Vanessa Dennen, Florida State University, USAs
