Abstract

The second edition of the book, published in 2020, Digital Education, is coordinated by Ciprian Ceobanu and Constantin Cucoş, Professors at the Faculty of Psychology and Education Sciences of the “Alexandru Ioan Cuza” University of Iaşi, Olimpius Istrate and Ion-Ovidiu Pânişoară, an Associate Professor and a Professor at the Faculty of Psychology and Education Sciences of the University of Bucharest. The studies gathered in this book include qualitative as well as quantitative analysis to help teachers expand and deepen the understanding of information for identifying solutions to the challenges of digitalization of education. Divided into thirty-four chapters grouped into five parts, the book analyses the impact of new technologies on training pathways. The reasons for which such study is extremely necessary is reflected in the concept of Education 4.0 that “although still insufficiently articulated and defined, tries to offer solutions for the changes to which the educational system must react in order to respond to the economic challenges of the beginning of the third millennium” (Ceobanu, Cucoş, Istrate, Pânişoară, 2022, p. 17).
