The chapters in this book are based on selected peer reviewed research
papers presented at the 11th biennial Networked Learning Conference
(NLC) 2018 held in Zagreb and were chosen as exemplars of cutting edge
research on networked learning. The chapters are organized into three
main sections: 1) Aspects of mobility for Networked Learning in a global
world, 2) Use and misuse of algorithms and learning analytics, 3)
Understanding and empowering learners. The three main sections are
flanked by chapters which introduce and reflect on Networked Learning as
epistemic practice. The concluding chapter draws out perspectives from
the chapters and discusses emerging issues.
The book focuses on the nature of learning and interactions as an
important characteristic sought out by researchers and practitioners in
this field.
