The Digital Academic
Academic work, like many other professional occupations, has increasingly become digitised. This book brings together leading scholars who examine the impacts, possibilities, politics and drawbacks of working in the contemporary university, using digital technologies. They span the fields of education, research administration, sociology, digital humanities, media and communication.
Digital Technology and the Contemporary University
Digital Technology and the Contemporary University examines the often messy realities of higher education in the ‘digital age’. Drawing on a variety of theoretical and empirical perspectives, the book explores the intimate links between digital technology and wider shifts within contemporary higher education – not least the continued rise of the managerialist ‘bureaucratic’ university. It highlights the ways that these new trends can be challenged, and possibly changed altogether. Addressing a persistent gap in higher education and educational technology research, where digital technology is rarely subject to an appropriately critical approach, Degrees of Digitization offers an alternative reading of the social, political, economic and cultural issues surrounding universities and technology. The book highlights emerging themes that are beginning to be recognised and discussed in academia, but as yet have not been explored thoroughly. Over the course of eight wide-ranging chapters the book addresses issues such as: The role of digital technology in university reform; Digital technologies and the organisation of universities; Digital technology and the working lives of university staff; Digital technology and the ‘student experience’; Reimagining the place of digital technology within the contemporary university. This book will be of great interest to all students, academic researchers and writers working in the areas of education studies and/or educational technology, as well as being essential reading for anyone working in the areas of higher education research and digital media research.

Digital education is one of the core tenets of the NEP 2020 plan. From metropolitan to rural areas, it aspires to provide digital education for everyone. In order to accomplish this, digital technology have become a crucial instrument. While boosting output and efficiency, digital technologies aim to reduce or eliminate pollution and waste. These technologies have a significant impact on how education is delivered. The recent COVID-19 Pandemic has strengthened the legitimacy of using digital tools in education. These digital tools have brought about a paradigm shift in the entire educational system. Along with sharing knowledge, it also serves as a mentor, an assessor, and a co-creator of information. Students' lives have been simpler as a result of educational technology advancements. Nowadays, students prepare presentations and projects utilising a variety of software and tools rather than pen and paper. The weight of an iPad is not as great as a stack of notebooks. The navigation of an E-book is simpler than that of a large book. These techniques contribute to raising research interest. This book provides a concise overview of the issues in higher education, the necessity for digital technologies in education, and various digital technologies utilised for teaching and learning.
