Recent research includes improving social presence and interaction in collaborative learning, using epistemic games to foster new learning, and pedagogy and praxis of ICT integration in school curricula. Contributors to this series are the international academics who are actively engaged in frontier research dealing with learning innovations. The research findings presented in this series will have profound effects on the way we teach in formal and informal education settings. The series will draw attention of the researchers, educators, practitioners, policy makers and students in education, psychology and technology around the world with an interest in approaches to research in learning innovations.
