Page 9 - International Perspectives on Effective Teaching and Learning in Digital Education

Foreword

a scoping review of evaluation methods for interdisciplinary team training.
Betül Tosun and Ayla Yava examine the use of serious digital games in nurs-
ing education, demonstrating how game-based learning can foster clinical
competence and learner autonomy. The monograph concludes with a com-
pelling contribution by Juan M. Leyva, who proposes digital narrative pho-
tography as an innovative method for cultivating empathy in health sciences
education, blending digital literacy with affective learning.
These contributions reflect a wide range of research, practice and critical
reflection that addresses the complexity and potential of digital education.
The monograph underscores the imperative of equity, engagement, and in-
terdisciplinarity in the design of digital learning environments, offering valu-
able insights for educators, instructional designers, researchers, policymakers
and students who want to understand digital transformation in higher edu-
cation more deeply - not just as a set of tools or techniques, but as a complex,
multidimensional phenomenon that requires theoretical sophistication and
practical accountability.
We extend our sincere gratitude to all the authors and reviewers for their
scientific rigour and collegial dedication, and the production team for their
commitment to excellence.
