This book contains the contributions presented at the 7th international KES conference on Smart Education and e-Learning (KES SEEL-2020), which being held as a virtual conference on June 17-19, 2020. It contains fifty three high quality peer-reviewed papers that are grouped into several interconnected parts: Part 1 – Smart Education, Part 2 – Smart e-Learning, Part 3 – Smart Pedagogy, Part 4 - Smart Education: Systems and Technology, Part 5 – Smart Education: Case Studies and Research, Part 6 - Smart University Development: Organizational and Managerial Issues, Part 7 - Smart Education and Smart Universities and their Impact on Students with Disabilities, Part 8 - Mathematical Models in Smart Education and e-Learning, and Part 9 - Models of Professional Practice in Higher Education. Smart education and smart e-learning are emerging and rapidly growing areas with the potential to transform existing teaching strategies, learning environments, and educational activities and technology in the classroom. Smart education and smart e-learning focus on enabling instructors to develop new ways of achieving excellence in teaching in highly technological smart classrooms, and providing students with new opportunities to maximize their success and select the best options for their education, location and learning style, as well as the mode of content delivery. This book serves as a useful source of research data and valuable information on current research projects, best practices and case studies for faculty, scholars, Ph.D. students, administrators, and practitioners – all those who are interested in smart education and smart e-learning.

This monograph presents the challenges, vision and context to design smart learning objects (SLOs) through Computer Science (CS) education modelling and feature model transformations. It presents the latest research on the meta-programming-based generative learning objects (the latter with advanced features are treated as SLOs) and the use of educational robots in teaching CS topics. The introduced methodology includes the overall processes to develop SLO and smart educational environment (SEE) and integrates both into the real education setting to provide teaching in CS using constructivist and project-based approaches along with evaluation of pedagogic outcomes. Smart Learning Objects for Smart Education in Computer Science will appeal to researchers in CS education particularly those interested in using robots in teaching, course designers and educational software and tools developers. With research and exercise questions at the end of each chapter students studying CS related courses will find this work informative and valuable too.

This book serves as a reference for researchers and practitioners in academia and industry. Smart education, smart e-learning and smart pedagogy are emerging and rapidly growing areas that have a potential to transform existing teaching strategies, learning environments and educational activities and technology. They are focused at enabling instructors to develop innovative ways of achieving excellence in teaching in highly technological smart university and providing students with new opportunities to maximize their success using smart classrooms, smart systems and technology. This book contains the contributions presented at the 9th international KES conference on Smart Education and e-Learning (SEEL-2022) with the Smart Pedagogy as the main conference theme. It comprises of forty nine high-quality peer-reviewed papers that are grouped into several interconnected parts: Part 1—Smart Pedagogy, Part 2—Smart Education, Part 3—Smart e-Learning, Part 4—Smart University, Part 5—Smart Education: Systems and Technology, Part 6—Digital Humanities and Social Sciences for Smart University Development: the Innovative Methods, Models and Technologies, Part 7—Digital Transformation of Education and Economics in Smart University and Part 8—Smart Education for Children with Special Educational Needs. We believe this book will serve as a useful source of research data and valuable information for faculty, scholars, Ph.D. students, administrators and practitioners—those who are interested in smart education, smart e-learning and smart pedagogy.

This book addresses main issues concerned with the future learning, learning and academic analytics, virtual world and smart user interface, and mobile learning. This book gathers the newest research results of smart learning environments from the aspects of learning, pedagogies, and technologies in learning. It examines the advances in technology development and changes in the field of education that has been affecting and reshaping the learning environment. Then, it proposes that under the changed technological situations, smart learning systems, no matter what platforms (i.e., personal computers, smart phones, and tablets) they are running at, should be aware of the preferences and needs that their users (i.e., the learners and teachers) have, be capable of providing their users with the most appropriate services, helps to enhance the users' learning experiences, and to make the learning efficient.
