这本经过编辑的书收集了亚洲、澳大利亚和欧洲学者和实践者的观点，揭示了在新的交流和学习模式出现时，教育者和学习者面临的利弊、机遇和挑战、制约因素以及潜在风险，以期揭示疫情期间的全球教育环境。自从全球疫情爆发以来，教育几乎在各个方面都发生了革命。紧急预防措施一度被认为只是临时的学校安排，现在已经成为新常态，重塑了我们对学习环境的理解，重新定义了教学实践、学习设计、师生互动、反馈和评估方面的教学标准。在线教学、远程学习、翻转教室和自定进度的电子学习在各种教育环境中塑造新的教育文化方面发挥着越来越重要的作用，影响着学校管理、教师、学生和家长。虽然教育中的信息和通信技术与新媒体一起为教育工作者和学生提供了大量的好处和便利，但在社会距离较远的教室中进行的交流和虚拟课程似乎带来了诸如数字鸿沟、电子心理健康、技术支持不足、课堂管理效率低下、师生互动减少等问题，更不用说对隐私和安全的日益担忧了。
Digital Communication and Learning: Changes and Challenges
This edited book collects papers with perspectives from scholars and practitioners in Asia, Australia, and Europe to reveal the pros and cons, chances and challenges, constraints, and potential risks that educators and learners are facing as the new paradigm for communication and learning takes place, with a view to shedding light on the global education climate in the midst of the pandemic. Since the onset of the global pandemic, education has been revolutionized in almost every aspect. The emergency precautionary measures which were once supposed to be temporary school arrangements only have now become the new normal, reshaping our understanding of learning environments, redefining the pedagogic standards in terms of teaching practices, learning designs, teacher–student interaction, feedback, and assessment. Online teaching, distanced learning, flipped classrooms, and self-paced e-learning have all played an increasingly vital role in shaping a new education culture in various education settings, affecting school management, teachers, students, and parents alike. While ICT in education, alongside new media, has provided ample benefits and convenience for educators and students, communication and virtual lessons conducted in the socially distanced classroom appear to have brought issues such as the digital divide, e-mental health, insufficient technical support, inefficient classroom management, reduced interaction between teachers and students, not to mention the growing concerns over privacy and security.
