Synopsis

In this forth volume, a dedicated set of authors explore the Education field, contributing to the frontlines of knowledge. Success depends on the participation of those who wish to find creative solutions and believe their potential to change the world, altogether to increase public engagement and cooperation from communities. Part of our mission is to serve society with these initiatives and promote knowledge, therefore it requires the reinforcement of research efforts, education and science and cooperation between the most diverse studies and backgrounds.

The contents of this edition show us how to navigate in the most broadening issues in contemporary education and research. In particular, this book explores four major topics within the broad theme, which is Education, corresponding to four sections: “Teachers and Students”, “Teaching and Learning”, “Organizational Issues” and “Projects and Trends”. Each section comprises chapters that have emerged from extended and peer reviewed selected papers, originally published in the proceedings of the International Conference on Education and New Developments (END) conference series (http://end-educationconference.org/). This meeting occurs annually with successful outcomes. Original papers have been selected and its authors were invited to extend them to once again undergo a new evaluation’s process, afterwards the authors of the accepted chapters were requested to make the necessary corrections and improve the final submitted chapters. This process has resulted in the final publication of 26 high quality chapters organized into 4 sections. The following sections’ and chapters’ abstracts provide some information on this book’s contents.
