Digital Technologies and Learning in Physical Education: Pedagogical cases
by Ashley Casey, Victoria A. Goodyear and Kathleen M. ArmourThere is evidence of considerable growth in the availability and use of digital technologies in physical education. Yet, we have scant knowledge about how technologies are being used by teachers, and whether or how these technologies are optimising student learning. This book makes a novel contribution by focusing on the ways in which teachers and teacher educators are attempting to use digital technologies in PE. The book has been created using the innovative ‘pedagogical cases’ framework. Each case centres on a narrative, written by a PE practitioner, explaining how and why technology is used in their practice to advance and accelerate learning. Each practitioner narrative is then analysed by a team of experts from different disciplines. The aim is to offer a multi-dimensional understanding of the possibilities and challenges of supporting young people’s learning with digital technologies. Each case concludes with a practitioner reflection to illustrate the links between theory, research and practice. Digital Technologies and Learning in Physical Education encourages critical reflection on the use of technologies in PE. It is an essential resource for students on physical education, kinesiology or sport science courses, practitioners working in PE or youth sport, and researchers interested in digital technologies and education.
Digital Technologies and Transformation in Business, Industry and Organizations (Studies in Systems, Decision and Control #210)
by Álvaro Rocha Ruben Pereira Isaias BianchiThis book intends to provide a reference manual to assist professionals and academics on further insights regarding: the impact of digital technologies in business, how to implement digital technologies, solutions for specific digital technologies barriers, and much more. Digital transformation marks a rethinking of how an organization uses technology, people, and processes in pursuit of new business models and new revenue streams, driven by changes in customer expectations around products and services. For many enterprises that build traditional goods, this means building digital products, such as a mobile applications or an ecommerce platform. To do so, they must use and integrate digital technologies. The pace of change is increasing. Organizations need to adapt or risk to disappear under innovators entrance in the market. With new digital technologies growing in an exponential rate in the last few decades, organizations are facing even more complex contexts. Managers are now pressed to take efficient decisions. The editors encourage the use of research methods such as Systematic Literature Review (SLR) or Multivocal Literature Review (MLR) (since many new technologies are usually evolved first by practitioners). However, other research methods can also be appreciated as case studies or experiments.

Understanding the ongoing digital transformation implies the relevance of further in-depth research of this issue in the context of various socioeconomic systems, interdisciplinary interactions, and cooperation between scientists and practitioners. The book is an attempt to analyze these changes and consider them from the point of view of various scientific areas (economics, management, education, law, sociology, and others). This book addresses theoretical and practical aspects by studying the digital technology application in terms of the new socioeconomic reality development: big data in the digital economy, data collection and exchange, artificial intelligence, intelligent communications, digital platforms and strategies for the sustainable development of socioeconomic systems, and new requirements of professional and business education. It provides significant value for scientists, teachers, and students of higher educational institutions.
Digital Technologies, Smart Cities, and the Environment: In the Ruins of Broken Promises
by Adi Kuntsman Liu XinThe concept of smart cities holds environmental promises: that digital technologies will reduce carbon emissions, air pollution and waste, and help address climate change. Drawing on academic scholarship and two case studies from Manchester and Helsinki, this timely and accessible book examines what happens when these promises are broken, as they prioritise technological innovation rather than environmental care. The book reveals that smart cities’ vision of sustainable digital future obfuscates the environmental harms and social injustices that digitisation inflicts. The framework of “broken promises”, coined by the authors, centres environmental questions in analysing imaginaries and practices of smart cities. This is a must read for anyone interested in the connections between digital technologies and environment justice.
