Study Design: Due to the ongoing societal and technological changes, the S-T is changing extremely fast and new conceptualizations are required in order to examine how such evolving space-time approaches can operate as a tool for teaching and learning. This paper provides such a conceptualization. Methodology: This article should be considered as a theoretical contribution to how the existing conceptualization of space-time in education should be redefined to address emerging teaching and learning paradigm shifts, which have an impact on its consideration and use. As a theoretical paper it does not follow the traditional approaches of research papers (i.e., provide: exact methodology, collection of data, analysis and conclusions based on the analysis).

The proposed model introduces a new language metaphor, the 'puzzle-metaphor' (similar to the existing 'turtle-metaphor' for concepts from mathematics and physics), based on a visualized unification-like mechanism for pattern matching. The computational implementation of the model can be used for creating environments for learning through design and learning by teaching.

According to existing research, digital games can provide their users with meaningful, interactive virtual environments capable of supporting learning within the context of a range of learning theories. Nevertheless, there is a number of factors (e.g. implementation costs, time restrictions, demands of existing curricula) that may hamper the broad adoption of a Digital Game-Based Learning approach. Thus, there has been a shift of interest toward the "gamification" of (technology-enhanced) learning by either infusing a game-like character to performed classroom activities, or integrating game-like characteristics into the design and development of digital educational environments. In this emerging gamification context there have been attempts to develop interactive educational environments that incorporate a number of characteristics, typical to digital games, such as 3D virtual worlds, appropriate virtual representations, on-time and/or on-demand help, and on-demand game-like feedback. However, educational activities, in these environments, usually occur as part of pre-designed and fixed scenarios. Given all the above, the aim of this contribution is to present a web-based digital platform, developed as part of an ongoing research project, for creating, sharing, and delivering gamified learning scenarios. More specifically, through the use of a built-in authoring tool, the proposed platform allows educators to create their own educational scenarios by defining a number of learning activities and their sequence. Each educational activity may be associated with learning objects retrieved from existing Learning Object Repositories (LORs), whereas gamification elements, available from a provided list, may also be used. Developed scenarios take the form of educational digital games delivered through a three-dimensional virtual world where the learner is represented by an avatar. Thus, depending on the learning needs, a number of gamified educational scenarios are available or can be created from scratch. By providing a detailed account of the employed design and development methodology, as well as the system's architecture, it is our intention to analytically present the platform from a technical point of view. However, there is also a specific focus on the underlying pedagogical framework that, among others, emphasizes the importance of fostering an expertise sharing culture by allowing educators to share their scenarios with peers, retrieve and use already developed ones, or even edit available educational scenarios, depending on the needs. Design choices at both the pedagogical and technical level have been documented on the basis of data derived from the users' needs analysis. Finally, with respect to the platform's evaluation, there has been a focus on the gaming experience and perceived learning effectiveness, from the learner point of view, as well as on usability issues, from the educator-educational designer point of view. In this context, evaluation results are used to shed light on the platform's capacity to effectively support the design and delivery of gameful learning experiences.

The chapter, after an overview on knowledge processes, personal-social competences and significant related models (Frameworks of Twenty-First Century Learning, Key Competences for Lifelong Learning, Social and Emotional Learning, Approach to Learning), is focusing on digital literacy models (Digital Competence Framework for Citizens, ICT Competency Framework for Teachers, ICT Standards for Students), and finally is synthesizing two new 3D competency-based models: a specific one for the individual children's rights for the digital world (“Open Sesame”) and a general one for the educational community (“School of the Future International Academy”), respectively accompanied by examples.

Research interest has been stimulated by a range of advantages of Cloud technologies (e.g. adaptability, flexibility, scalability, accessibility, cost effectiveness). For these reasons, there have already been efforts concerned with the educational uptake of the Cloud at different scale levels (mainly at the institutional and regional level). Apart from that, there are also larger-scale initiatives taking the form of research projects (e.g. the Rural School Cloud project). Nevertheless, most practices have been mainly shaped by the application of economic policies rather than systematic research. In this emerging situation, the aim of this paper is to present the activities of a European network, which has been set up to research how education should adapt and respond to advancemen...

In other words, it is suggested that there is a need for an integrated approach which is simultaneously pedagogic (i.e. new role of teachers), technical/technological (i.e. use of the internet), administrative (i.e. new role of school administrators), social (i.e. a different disposition of parents towards school), political (i.e. a different approach of government to school) and cultural (i.e. new role of students), being in dialectic harmony and respecting all aspects of teaching and learning, an integral part of which are pupils, teachers and school administrators. As a result, the principal tasks in the area at the interface between education and cloud technology, which are presented in this paper, are to determine and describe the nature o...

There is a need to be an efficient and effective teaching and learning operating system, an appropriate to the future conditions teaching environment, an acceptable set of methodological tools and, because of these, a suitable classroom environment. These requirements represent the major components of the education paradigm been in effect every time, which, in the last few years, has shifted from the Individual/ Traditional, to the Group/Progressive, and finally to the Community/School on the Cloud paradigm. In addition, changes in the components of each paradigm have resulted in changes in the corresponding school model, from the Traditional, to the Progressive and finally to the School on the Cloud model. The goal of this chapter is to present and evaluate all these shifts, which are of paramount importance to future teaching and learning.

- οπτικοποιημένη παρουσίαση των βασικών προγραμματιστικών δομών (ακολουθίας - επιλογής - επανάληψης) που χρησιμοποιούνται σε περιβάλλοντα προγραμματισμού με συμβάντα.
- κωδικοποιημένες πληροφορίες σε ένα δισδιάστατο πίνακα, το "ΚωδικΌραμα", σχετικές με την ανατομία και τη λειτουργικότητα του προγράμματος, τόσο για τον δημιουργό του, όσο και για τον μαθητή ως προς την ενεργό εμπλοκή του στον προγραμματισμό.
- παιγνιώδεις διαδραστικές ψηφιακές δραστηριότητες κλιμακούμενης δυσκολίας, ώστε οι μαθητές να ανακαλύψουν πληροφορίες που είναι κρυμμένες στο "ΚωδικΌραμα" ή να δημιουργήσουν προτεινόμενες ή δικές τους αποστολές.
Βασικός σκοπός της προσέγγισης αυτής είναι να συγκεραστούν παράγοντες όπως η λειτουργικότητα του αυθεντικού προβλήματος-παραδείγματος, η απλότητα του κώδικα και η διδακτική πληρότητα του περιεχομένου του, με βάση δύο ψηφιακά μέσα που είναι το οπτικοποιημένο ψηφιακό μαθησιακό αντικείμενο (που συνιστά ένα διαδραστικό infographic) και μια φιλική γλώσσα προγραμματισμού (όπως το Scratch)
