Under network-based education the topics of ICT skills and experiences, models of ICT integration, virtual reality and a simulation-based learning and online tutoring are being described and assessed. The book is rooted in the studies, practises and arguments of researchers, teachers, educators and students navigating in diverse educational contexts.
