The term 'convergence' refers to the breaking down of barriers between open and distance learning and conventional institutions, and the creation of more and more institutions working across a range of modes. Such convergence has been driven by a number of factors, including the new technologies for teaching and learning, the impact of lifelong learning policies, the entry of larger than ever numbers of adult part-time studentsRoutledge studies in distance education.Distance educationOpen learningContinuing educationEducational technologyElectronic books.Distance education.Open learning.Continuing education.Educational technology.371.3/5Mills Roger1941-934957Tait Alan934958FlBoTFGFlBoTFGBOOK9910450663503321The convergence of distance and conventional education2105471UNINA09075nam 22008535 450 99658207030331620240306125748.01-3995-0520-310.1515/9781399505208(CKB)30574013100041(DE-B1597)672186(DE-B1597)9781399505208(EXLCZ)993057401310004120240306h20242024 fg engur|||||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierThe Edinburgh Companion to the New European Humanities /ed. by Hiltraud Casper-Hehne, Marjan Ivković, Rosi Braidotti, Daan F.

Perspectives From Across Europe -- Conclusion -- IndexAssesses the rise of the 'New' Humanities alongside the traditional disciplines and inter-disciplinary 'studies' areasTakes an original approach in its European scope and institutional representationFocusses on the 'New' or 'Post' HumanitiesIncorporates an exceptional degree of inter and trans-disciplinarity, covering areas including the intercultural humanities, post- and decolonial perspectives, digital humanities, medical humanities, environmental humanities and moreDraws from many European languages and traditionsCombines theoretical speculation with policy-making pragmatismThis is the first collection that highlights the strengths and contributions of the Humanities in the European region. The volume stresses the positive and multidimensional impact of the Humanities on core areas of human experience, and their ability to formulate new frames to represent our collective and individual relation to the world. Further, it explores new ethical social imaginaries, gendered scenarios and spaces of decolonial transculturality. This collection also confronts the threats the Humanities face today and proposes ways to respond. These threats include public discourses that question the value of the Humanities; the chronic underfunding of teaching and research at our universities and institutions, and the more fundamental risks to intellectual freedom, democracy and critical discourse, diversity, and the radical imagination posed by political and market forces and organisations. Overall, this volume proposes innovative tools to increase our collective awareness of forms of injustice, exclusion and the suffering of both the human and the non-human inhabitants of this planet. It discusses the posthuman future of the Humanities and makes recommendations for the implementation of innovative approaches to the Humanities.PHILOSOPHY / History & Surveys / ModernbisacshPHILOSOPHY / History & Surveys / Modern.Armiero Marco, ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbBaccolini Raffaella, ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbBenvenuti Giuliana, ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbBondio Mariacarla Gadebusch, ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbBraidotti Rosi, ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbBraidotti Rosi, edthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBueno David, ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbCasanovas Josep, ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbCasper-Hehne Hiltraud, ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbCasper-Hehne Hiltraud, edthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtElefante Chiara, ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbFletcher Isabel, ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbGamberi Cristina, ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbGarcés Marina, ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbHartman Steven, ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbHenkel Christina, ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbIvković Marjan, ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbIvković Marjan, edthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtLombardo Gabi, ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbMonticelli Rita, ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbMoore Henrietta L., ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbMoreno Juan M., ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbOhlmeyer Jane, ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbOosterbeek Luiz, ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbOostveen Daan F. , edthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtOostveen Daan F., ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbOppermann Serpil, ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbPalmowski Jan, ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbPannach Franziska, ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbReiffenrath Tanja, ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbRotolo Antonino, ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbSpaapen Jack, ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbSporleder Caroline, ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbStegeman Arjan, ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbTrajković Đurđa, ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbVerheije Hélène, ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbVienni-Baptista Bianca, ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbVilalta Josep M., ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbWallace Doireann, ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbÅsberg Cecilia, ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbDE-B1597DE-B1597BOOK996582070303316The Edinburgh Companion to the New European Humanities4148311UNISA
