Abstract

ABSTRACT The concept of the Fourth Industrial Revolution is related to a ubiquitously connected, pervasively proximate (UCaPP) world and its response to Covid-19. Pedagogies need to be aligned with institutional ‘quality education’ and changes in the nature of the undergraduate student intake to formulate a 'Future Educational System'. Considerations include students from ‘non-traditional’ sources adapting to existing university structures and how procedures might accommodate these students in addition to changes and disruptions resulting from Covid-19. Mobile devices allow Personal Learning Environments (PLEs) to be developed in accordance with individual students’ needs. PLEs allow ubiquitous, flexible structures to develop educational quality. Policies should involve connectivist approaches and active learning via broad curriculum development and appreciate the importance of individual student needs and capabilities, socio-economic as well as academic. We stress the importance of broadening access to higher education, particularly for those who have been ‘neglected’ by current procedures.

新冠疫情下的第四次产业革命下的灵活个性化学习和未来教育体系

第四次工业革命的概念与无处不在的连接、无处不在的接近(UCaPP)世界及其对Covid-19的应对有关。教学方法必须与院校的“素质教育”和本科生招生性质的变化保持一致，以制定“未来教育体系”。考虑因素包括来自“非传统”来源的学生如何适应现有的大学结构，以及程序如何适应这些学生，以及Covid-19造成的变化和中断。移动设备允许个人学习环境(ple)的发展，根据个别学生的需要。ple允许无处不在的、灵活的结构来发展教育质量。政策应包括联系主义方法和通过广泛的课程开发进行主动学习，并认识到学生个人需求和能力、社会经济和学术的重要性。我们强调扩大接受高等教育的机会的重要性，特别是对于那些被现行程序“忽视”的人。

期刊介绍： The aim of Higher Education Pedagogies is to identify, promote and publish excellence and innovations in the practice and theory of teaching and learning in and across all disciplines in higher education. The journal will provide an international forum for the sharing, dissemination and discussion of research, experience and perspectives across a wide range of teaching and learning issues. The journal will prove a valuable resource for individuals in the development and enhancement of their own practice, and for institutions in the promotion of the scholarship of teaching and learning. Higher Education Pedagogies will focus on disciplinary pedagogies and learning experiences; the higher education curriculum, i.e. what is taught and how it is developed and enhanced including both skills and knowledge; the delivery of the higher education curriculum; how it is taught and how students learn, and academic development; the role of teaching and learning in the development of academic careers and its place within the profession. Higher Education Pedagogies welcomes papers which are accessible to both specialist and generalist readers and are theoretically and empirically rigorous. Through advancing knowledge of, and practice in, teaching and learning, Higher Education Pedagogies will prove essential reading for all those who wish to stay informed of state-of-the-art teaching and learning developments in higher education. Higher Education Pedagogies is sponsored by the Higher Education Academy.
