This edited volume addresses learning, digitization, pedagogy, and technology across disciplines in the Nigerian context. In the age of technology and pressure to produce employable graduates, teaching has transcended the traditional and Socratic methods. Learning outcomes are now majorly based on igniting the critical thinking of students using varieties of pedagogy within and outside the classroom. In this collection, authors contextualize the varieties of teaching, engagement, integration, and scholarship that ignites critical thinking, discovery, and creativities in the subject areas. From teaching physics to vocational skills, from primary to tertiary institutions, authors bring to the fore the enactment of effective pedagogy, teaching, learning, and most importantly, knowledge production.
