Synopsis

inScience Press is delighted to publish this book entitled Education Applications & Developments XI as part of the Advances in Education and Educational Trends books series. These series comprise the work of authors and editors to address global research in the Education area.

This 11th volume, presented in two parts, addresses some of the most relevant and pressing issues in contemporary educational research. Through the contributions of a dedicated group of authors, this volume explores diverse dimensions of Education, fostering the advancement of knowledge and encouraging innovation in the field. Progress in education depends on the active commitment of individuals who are willing to develop creative solutions and who believe in their capacity to bring about meaningful change. In this spirit, the present volume seeks to inspire broader public engagement and strengthen collaboration within and across communities. As part of our ongoing commitment to serving society, we underscore the importance of reinforcing research initiatives, promoting education and science, and encouraging interdisciplinary cooperation. We believe that connecting diverse perspectives and areas of expertise is essential for advancing educational practices that are both impactful and inclusive.

This 11th edition is organized around four major areas within the broad field of Education: “Teachers and Students”, “Projects and Trends”, “Teaching and Learning”, and “Organizational Issues”. Part I focuses on the areas: “Teachers and Students” and “Teaching and Learning”, while Part II addresses “Projects and Trends” and “Organizational Issues.” Each section comprises chapters that have emerged from extended and peer reviewed selected papers, originally published last year in the proceedings of the International Conference on Education and New Developments (END 2025) conference series (http://end-educationconference.org/). This meeting occurs annually with consistently successful outcomes. Selected original papers were expanded by their authors and underwent a renewed evaluation process. Following this, authors of the accepted chapters were invited to revise and improve their work based on the reviewers’ feedback. This process resulted in the publication of 27 high-quality chapters in Part I and 30 chapters in Part II.
