Encyclopedia of Educational Innovation

This encyclopedia offers an up-to-date account of the way that educational practice at all levels is being deeply impacted and changed by innovation. It provides essential entries covering detailed insights into the economics, sociology, management, and psychology of education, and also how education is affected by philosophy, history, web science, and Internet Studies. It embraces fields such as collective intelligence, social media and network analysis, artificial intelligence, automation, and deep learning. In a single collection, The Encyclopaedia of Educational Innovation brings together world-leading researchers to guide readers through the complex and fascinating debates between innovation as the most dominant discourses of the knowledge economy, and new cultural and sharing economics promoting social and open dimensions as a means of fostering international competitiveness and developing platforms for creativity and innovation. Educational innovation provides models that have the power to radically transform education and pedagogy as educational institutions become less like factories in the industrial age and more like a Google workplace in the knowledge age.
