Overview
-----------------------------------------------------------
The guest editors and the ASLERD Association are proud to invite and
welcome contributions from researchers and practitioners that foster
the development of smart learning ecosystems and smart education to
help learning places to recover their central role in the education
of future citizens, and in the promotion of social innovation and
territorial development. We welcome contributions from people that
fight to reify the above vision and to achieve a better learning for
a better world as a contribution to the United Nations 2030 Agenda
for Sustainable Development Goals(SDGs). This is a particularly
pertinent moment of uncertainty due to the COVID-19 pandemic that
still prevails with an enormous, still unmeasurable impact, on
learning ecosystems. Papers that report on work that nurtures a
post-pandemic view and strategy for a better learning world are
specially welcome.
This special issue is supported by the Association for Smart
Learning Ecosystems and Regional Development (ASLERD) and welcome
the submission of substantially extended version of the papers
presented at SLERD 2020.
(video recording of SLERD2020 presentations and of the open debate
are available though the ASLERD Youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCmI-nIFxngonR7b3W4xSEpA/videos)
