Learning Technologies and the Body Summary

Learning Technologies and the Body: Integration and Implementation In Formal and Informal Learning Environments by Victor R. Lee

This volume explores how technology-supported learning environments can incorporate physical activity and interactive experiences in formal education. It presents cutting-edge research and design work on a new generation of body-centric technologies such as wearable body sensors, GPS tracking devices, interactive display surfaces, video game controller devices, and humanlike avatars. Contributors discuss how and why each of these technologies can be used in service of learning within K-12 classrooms and at home, in museums and online. Citing examples of empirical evidence and specific implementation, this timely and critical volume examines how body responsive technologies are being used within the educational community to advance the next generation of educational technology.

Learning Technologies and the Body Reviews

This book is of great theoretical and practical significance for pedagogic discourse research, pedagogic method innovation, and educational policymaking. On the one hand, it not only benefits educational researchers and practitioners but makes excellent contributions to multimodal discourse analysis theory and multimodal discourse research methodology...On the other hand, this study has implications for administrators and curriculum specialists as it can be helpful in implementing a pedagogic shift to teachers' roles as designers of learning; teachers can use this study to reflect on teaching as designing learning through semiotic orchestration of embodied resources. --- Guoqiang Liu, Universiti Teknologi Malaysia, review in Discourse Studies. DOI: https://doi.org/10.1177/14614456221121187
