The current study attempts to clarify the educational stock of educational concepts, terms and issues that have been obliterated (either intentionally or unintentionally or perhaps out of ignorance) in order to enlighten the way to researchers in the educational field and push them to search and explore what the Arab educational heritage abounds in from many issues in all fields of education And education, which the innovators (educational renewal) were able to derive from our educational heritage and then return it to us a second time as being from their actions and the offspring of their ideas. In the knowledge society, the knowledge economy, the digital society, and the repercussions of two industrial revolutions (the Fourth and the Fifth) and many others that have been proposed and repeated recently in the field of educational research, the importance of such a study, which sheds light on the concept of both educational heritage and educational renewal, appears Explaining the justifications for research and exploration in the educational heritage, and raising educational issues that have been studied from the inspiration of the educational heritage, and then the approach between educational heritage and educational innovation, and finally proposing the study of educational issues inspired by the Arab Islamic educational heritage.

Educational Innovation to Address Climate Change Issues

In recent years, we have seen an emerging trend: the application of recreational escape rooms to educational purposes to engage students in their learning environment. This trend also applies to higher education and to the complex issue of climate change. The objectives of this chapter are to revise literature in this domain and to share a case study for a digital and educational escape room related to climate change: “Escape Global Warming.” This digital escape room integrates the core concepts of climate change and global warming into a game to familiarize participants with this topic and with actions that can be taken to reduce and counteract the effects of climate change while entertaining. After playing, students acknowledge to being more knowledgeable about the issue and more motivated to learn.

University Governance in the context of Vietnam’s Educational Innovation

University governance brings about the success of a university. Renovation of management in the direction of university governance will exert important influences to improve the training quality of the higher education system. The article presents the theoretical basis and research process related to university governance activities to promote education innovation. The study combined qualitative and quantitative research; the survey sample was 120 people, of which 44 were managers and 76 were lecturers and staff working at Saigon University. The article proposes university governance related to such elements as planning for the development of resources in the university, policy mechanisms, organization and leadership, and monitoring. The article clarifies the relationship between the components of university governance activities in the direction of a system approach to help universities manage their activities towards sustainable university governance.

Book Review : Learning Inovation (Inovasi Pembelajaran)

In education, learning and learning is the most important thing or stage that must be passed by both students and educators. Education does not only include students and teachers, but learning and learning is one component of education itself. Learning includes what is needed in providing knowledge to students, ranging from what methods can be used, what media are needed, etc. Therefore, learning is one of the most important things in education because it includes some basic things that must be mastered, especially for educators. In the book “educational innovation” written by Hani Subakti etc. In this case, it is explained in detail what learning is and what is included in learning. This book also explains how learning should take place and what things are needed to make learning activities run smoothly, this is of course very useful for teachers, both teachers and lecturers, to improve learning and perhaps the interest of students in learning.

Adaptive Learning Supported by Learning Analytics for Student Teachers’ Personalized Training during in-School Practices

This paper presents the results of the second phase of the international project “Improving Educational Innovation, Competitiveness, and Quality of Higher Education through Collaboration between University and Companies (EKT)”. The use of adaptive learning supported by learning analytics is proposed as a pedagogical strategy to work on the collaborative and personalized learning process that takes place during the school placement period of initial teacher education. Learning analytics is expected to facilitate the analysis of the different sources of information and data generated in the learning process. The collected data will be centralized in a learning record store (LRS), which will serve as a repository for xAPI compatible traces from the tools that make up EKT intelligent system. The system is expected to provide a strong support to decision-making so that participant agents can collaborate, advise, and contribute to the future teacher’s personalized training according to his or her progress and the context in which the practice takes place. The need analysis of tutors in the five pilot countries is presented, which has made it possible to define the process variables that make up the learning analysis architecture of the EKT system.

Promoting educational innovations and change through networks between higher education teachers

Innovation in higher education teaching is essential to respond to global challenges and actively improve teaching (e.g. through new technologies), necessitating the implementation of educational reform programmes that fund educational innovations. Although currently deployed strategies frequently promote networks between innovators to diffuse educational innovations, little is known about the efficiency of these networks or whether they promote innovation diffusion. This study investigates a network comprising 88 higher education teachers who received funding for their educational innovations in a German university. We collected longitudinal data by asking higher education teachers from whom they adopted innovative teaching ideas and requesting self-reports on innovative teaching climate. Our findings show that the teachers’ social network had a smaller path length and more clustering than might be expected by chance. This observation might indicate that the examined educational innovation network exhibits a small-world property and allows efficient exchange of ideas among the teachers. In line with our hypotheses, the network’s initial tendency toward hierarchy and homophily decreased over time in response to strategies and network interventions. In summary, this study provides initial empirical support that educational reform programmes can create efficient educational innovation networks, facilitating innovation diffusion and promoting change in higher education teaching.
