New Science of Learning
by Myint Swe Khine Issa M. SalehThe earliest educational software simply transferred print material from the page to the monitor. Since then, the Internet and other digital media have brought students an ever-expanding, low-cost knowledge base and the opportunity to interact with minds around the globe--while running the risk of shortening their attention spans, isolating them from interpersonal contact, and subjecting them to information overload. The New Science of Learning: Cognition, Computers and Collaboration in Education deftly explores the multiple relationships found among these critical elements in students' increasingly complex and multi-paced educational experience. Starting with instructors' insights into the cognitive effects of digital media--a diverse range of viewpoints with little consensus--this cutting-edge resource acknowledges the double-edged potential inherent in computer-based education and its role in shaping students' thinking capabilities. Accordingly, the emphasis is on strategies that maximize the strengths and compensate for the negative aspects of digital learning, including: Group cognition as a foundation for learning Metacognitive control of learning and remembering Higher education course development using open education resources Designing a technology-oriented teacher professional development model Supporting student collaboration with digital video tools Teaching and learning through social annotation practices The New Science of Learning: Cognition, Computers and Collaboration in Education brings emerging challenges and innovative ideas into sharp focus for researchers in educational psychology, instructional design, education technologies, and the learning sciences.

New Storytelling: Learning through Metaphors
by Anna UrsynThere is a global need to become less fearful of coding, as it improves communication with the coders on the job and helps with prompt writing, which hiring companies often request. This set of story-based learning projects links performances and tasks with computing codes to show how a machine translates our goals into its language. Metaphors link instructions telling a computer what task to perform with similar functions in other disciplines. The materials serve those in Computer Graphics, Digital Media, or anyone interested in understanding and becoming familiar with principles and the logic behind coding, and help understand machines when writing a prompt. Dance, music, and performing visually present knowledge through stories and serve as a metaphor for understanding how coding and current technologies affect various disciplines. By introducing basic ideas behind programming in a symbolic way, this book shows how computing and nature overlap through storytelling.Most jobs are collaborative, and coding involves many parts of production processes. These knowledge-based stories improve communication between the artists and the coders to bridge the gap between them.It is a part of the “Knowledge Through the Arts” series, consisting of:Dance Code - Dance Steps as a CodeNew Storytelling - Learning Through MetaphorsCode Appreciation - Reshaping KnowledgeNature Appreciation - Knowledge as Art

New Technologies, New Risks? Innovation and Countering the Financing of Terrorism
by Andrew ZerzanNew financial and communication technologies offer a great opportunity to improve the lives of people everywhere. For instance, millions of impoverished people now have access to the financial system through stored value cards or mobile phones. However, some are concerned that governments are not always aware of these innovations in their jurisdictions. This has prompted fear that fast-moving terrorist groups could expand funding undetected. The fear has led some countries to take a restrictive stance on the technologies' use, either by outright prohibition or by placing unnecessary limitations that deter market development. Authorities are therefore challenged to tackle the double-sided nature of technological advancement: promoting security and economic growth. 'New Technologies, New Risks? Innovation and Countering the Financing of Terrorism' explores how money flows via these mediums, risks they pose, and how governments have mitigated the risks.
