Education is increasingly being involved with technological resources in order to meet the needs of emerging generations, consequently changing the way people teach and learn. Game-based learning is a growing aspect of pedagogical practice, and it is important to disseminate research trends and innovations in this field. The Handbook of Research on Immersive Digital Games in Educational Environments provides emerging research exploring the theoretical and practical aspects of digital games and technological resources and applications within contemporary education. Featuring coverage on a broad range of topics such as digital integration, educational simulation, and learning theories, this book is ideally designed for teachers, pre-service teachers, students, educational researchers, and education software developers seeking current research on diverse immersive platforms and three-dimensional environments that support the creation of digital games and other applications to improve teaching and learning processes.

Software engineering is the systematic application of the engineering discipline to the development of software (referred to as a software process). It is the utilisation of established principles, methodologies, and instruments to develop software that satisfies requirements in a timely, economical, and high-quality manner. The book under consideration encompasses not only the technical aspects of software development, but also encompasses project management activities and the formulation of theories, tools, and techniques that facilitate software production. Failure to implement software engineering methods leads to software that is more costly and less dependable. This can prove to be critical in the long run, as the expenses will increase substantially as new developments emerge. Software engineering methods and techniques vary in suitability for distinct categories of systems. Presently, software engineering is an enormous field to the extent that the entire subject cannot be covered in a single text. Therefore, the primary emphasis of this book is on crit-ical subjects that are intrinsic to all development processes and pertain to the construction of dependable, decentralised systems. An increased emphasis is being placed on agile methods and software reuse. Agile methods, according to the authors of this book, have their place, but "traditional" plan-driven software engineering also has its position.

This systems approach to project management aims to develop the reader's professional skills and thinking in the planning and control component of project work.
