This volume focuses on the implications of digital technologies for educators and educational decision makers that are not widely represented in the literature. The chapters contained in the volume are based on the presentations at the 2020 edition of the CELDA conference and cover multiple developments in the field such as deploying learning technologies, proposing pedagogical approaches and practices to address digital transformation, and presenting case studies of specific technologies and contexts. The chapters form a lively debate and provide a comprehensive analysis of the contribution of learning technologies designed to improve the learning process and the experience of the students as well as to develop key competences.

The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted all aspects of human existence—including the education sector. The pandemic has triggered a paradigm shift in the future of education, and thus, the current practices must transition to the “new normal.” For better or for worse, the practices and technologies used within learning environments must drastically change in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic. Policies and Procedures for the Implementation of Safe and Healthy Educational Environments: Post-COVID-19 Perspectives discusses the policies and procedures used in the implementation of safe and healthy educational environments both during and after the COVID-19 pandemic. It shares the best practices and presents the opportunity to learn from educator experiences in the time of crisis. Covering topics such as digital accessibility, healthy educational environments, and social-emotional development, this book is essential for educators in both K-12 and higher education settings, researchers, education administrators, policymakers, pre-service teachers, and academicians.
