Description & Coverage
Description:

Higher education is characterized by ubiquitous digital technologies and e-learning that are inevitably influencing the development of core competencies and professional skills requirements. There is a need to focus on the synergy between responsive curriculum implementation and e-learning delivery in the context of effective pedagogical practices and optimal integration of digital technologies. Similarly, we need to reexamine higher education practices towards innovative pedagogies and effective e-learning design.

Competence-Based Curriculum and E-Learning in Higher Education brings together researchers in the field of education and professionals who design and deliver online learning in higher education to share paradigms, perspectives, insights, contextualized experiences, challenges, and best practices. Covering topics such as mobile learning activities, student interaction promotion, and social media technologies, this major reference work is a comprehensive resource for instructional designers, faculty, administrators and educators of higher education, students in teaching programs, IT managers, librarians, researchers, and academicians.
