📌 𝐍𝐚𝐯𝐢𝐠𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐆𝐥𝐨𝐛𝐚𝐥 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐠𝐞𝐬: ELaRA-TESST education and research team is currently working on understanding global power dynamics and economic shifts and their implications on educational collaboration to help learners and researchers navigate a complex evolving economy. 💡 𝐈𝐧𝐧𝐨𝐯𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐏𝐞𝐝𝐚𝐠𝐨𝐠𝐢𝐞𝐬:  At the European University of Technology in collaboration with our esteemed partners United Nations Institute for Training and Research (UNITAR) and Çağ Üniversitesi we are exploring alternative pedagogies that help us to enhance teaching, learning, and research, by recognising researchers as learners. Education is not separated from research activity and we work in a framework that help us to support educators and researchers to work together through a transdisciplinary learning and collaborative environment. 🌟𝐓𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐬𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐜𝐢𝐩𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐫𝐲 𝐄𝐧𝐯𝐢𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬: Emphasising creativity, curiosity, and imagination, ELaRA-TESST highlights the importance of specialised knowledge supported by transdisciplinary environments for global societal progress and change. 👉 The following video offers some insights on the transformative impact of technology on society: https://lnkd.in/etgt3yH3 that is part of our group discussions on how the educational system needs to transform.

Cultural–Technological Integration Framework (CTIF) model bridges tradition and innovation in education, focusing on four key areas: Technological Acceptance, Pedagogical Knowledge, Networked Learning, and Cultural Compatibility. It ensures digital tools enhance, not disrupt, cultural practices—essential for blending technology with tradition. Reference: Bitar, N., & Davidovich, N. (2024).

📢 Excited to share that our article, “The Role of Digital Distraction in Higher Education: Pedagogical and Psychological Perspectives on Student Focus and Productivity,” has been published in the Central Asian Scientific Journal. 🎓 In this piece, we explore how digital tools enhance learning, create distractions, and offer strategies to help students stay focused in an increasingly tech-driven world. Thanks to my co-authors Аружан Мектепбаева, Dastan Smagulov, and Pavel Tsoy for their valuable contributions! 📖 For more details, check out the link in my profile. #HigherEducation #EdTech #StudentFocus #DigitalDistraction #AcademicResearch

💡What is the connection between McLuhan's media theory and and the #digital #technology that is being developed? 👉 John O'Connor walks us through a very interesting reflection that help us to consider McLuhan's theory relevance. When asking John O'Connor about why he selected McLuhan's to support our learning he reflected as follows:  "𝑴𝒄𝑳𝒖𝒉𝒂𝒏'𝒔 𝒘𝒂𝒔 𝒔𝒆𝒍𝒆𝒄𝒕𝒆𝒅 𝒃𝒆𝒄𝒂𝒖𝒔𝒆 𝒉𝒊𝒔 𝒎𝒆𝒅𝒊𝒂 𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒐𝒓𝒚 𝒊𝒔 𝒆𝒗𝒆𝒏 𝒎𝒐𝒓𝒆 𝒓𝒆𝒍𝒆𝒗𝒂𝒏𝒕 𝒕𝒐 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒅𝒊𝒈𝒊𝒕𝒂𝒍 𝒕𝒆𝒄𝒉 𝒃𝒆𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒅𝒆𝒗𝒆𝒍𝒐𝒑𝒆𝒅 𝒄𝒖𝒓𝒓𝒆𝒏𝒕𝒍𝒚 𝒕𝒉𝒂𝒏 𝒊𝒕 𝒘𝒂𝒔 𝒊𝒏 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒍𝒂𝒕𝒕𝒆𝒓 𝒉𝒂𝒍𝒇 𝒐𝒇 𝒕𝒉𝒆 20𝒕𝒉 𝑪" 🌟 Do you want to learn about the impact of Mass Media on 20th Century Western Society? We had the privilege to learn about it with John O'Connor and Sitearm Madonna as part of Technological University Dublin and Çağ Üniversitesi #Immersive #Learning Experience - see here: https://lnkd.in/e6HbTksB 💕 Can we connect economic thinking with arts and philosophy? I think that we can, and it should be considered as a critical element on economic teaching, learning and research environments to help fostering #innovative, #creative and #criticalthinking skills.

We are pleased to have Temitope Ogunsemo, CEO of Krystal Digital Solutions, present at uPivotal's Innovate Africa Conference at the Harvard School of Education.🚀 During yesterday's panel session, Ogunsemo noted that we must reimagine education, stating that “if we need to take care of the future, it is important we handle the real problems of tomorrow—today”. To create an effective relationship between education and industries, he asserted that it would be good to look beyond a lecturer-centric classroom to a student-centric classroom—through the use of technology. 🎯 Education should be more—beyond the brick and mortar—to a peer to peer learning. Are you a student, an academic, or in the professional space? What do you think should be done to enhance better learning for future purposes in schools? Looking forward to your comments in the comments section. 🤗🥂 #Education #Harvard #Technology #Academics
