    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    This insightful book expands understanding of teachers' professional digital competence by exploring the wider social, psychological, educational, legal and ethical dimensions of digital technology use in schools.



    Discussing the impact of digital technologies in education and wider society, expert contributing authors call for a broader professional knowledge base for teachers. They explore the impact of social media use on students’ psychological well being, their increasing exposure to misinformation and disinformation, as well as the continuing expansion of technology corporations in education. Authors advocate for a comprehensive view that transcends a narrow focus on technological innovations and takes into account the new, complex regulatory environments that exist as a result of digital technology. This book underscores the importance of teachers making informed decisions and ethical judgments in the digital age, to enhance their professional status and identity as educators in the twenty-first century.



    Reimagining Teacher Digital Competence is a vital tool for education scholars, particularly those researching teacher education and technology-enhanced learning. It will also benefit policy makers and practitioners looking to gain insight into the evolving nature of technologies' impact on education.



    This insightful book expands understanding of teachers’ professional digital competence by exploring the wider social, psychological, educational, legal and ethical dimensions of digital technology use in schools. Discussing the impact of digital technologies in education and wider society, expert contributing authors call for a broader professional knowledge base for teachers.

    Reimagining Teacher Digital Competence offers a timely and thought-provoking exploration of what it means to be a digitally competent educator in today’s rapidly evolving educational landscape. Drawing on insights from a diverse group of established and emerging scholars, this volume invites readers to move beyond narrow definitions of competence established solely in technical proficiency.’
