Description
This book examines networked science and the pedagogy of tele-proximity, a paradigm that integrates eLearning theories, information technology, and visual media competencies.
The book conceptualises the idea of tele-proximity as a means to foster diversity and human-to-human contact online. It uses the lens of Social Physics and considers how to bridge the distance in eLearning, examining social connections, collective intelligence, and personal well-being. The book draws on qualitative and quantitative research in higher education to form fine-tuned eLearning networks that achieve demosophia, the core of democracy. It charts the progress of technology-enhanced learning approaches and shows the need for a sound pedagogical framework that is holistic and sustainable to promote mindful presence.
Contributing to the literature on eLearning, this timely book will be of great interest to educational philosophers, policymakers, educators, researchers, and students in the field of distance education.
