Design of Technology-Enhanced Learning
This book explains how educational research can inform the design of technology-enhanced learning environments. After laying pedagogical, technological and content foundations, it analyses learning in Web 2.0, Social Networking, Mobile Learning and Virtual Worlds to derive nuanced principles for technology-enhanced learning design.

Digital Personalization in Early Childhood
This book is available as open access through the Bloomsbury Open Access programme and is available on www.bloomsburycollections.com. Digital personalization is an emerging interdisciplinary research field, with application to a variety of areas including design, education and publication industry. This book focuses on children’s education and literacy resources, which have undergone important changes with the ‘personalization revolution’ in the early 21st century. The author develops original insights from educational research and her own studies concerned with digital and non-digital personalization, to discuss in a clear and critical way the thinking, research issues and practical implications of this new field. She scrutinises the character of technology-based personalized education to substantiate the claim that the current models of personalized education tend to be technology- and business-driven, with little pedagogical understanding of the social value of personalization. Research involving touchscreens, personalized books and 2-8-year olds is interrogated for its impact on children’s development of language, creativity, identity, as well as family dynamics and classroom dialogue. The literature available on digital and non-digital personalization is discussed in relation to five key themes of personalized education, the so-called 5As: autonomy, authorship, aesthetics, attachment and authenticity. It is argued that the 5As need to be anchored in humanist principles for a sustainable pedagogy and practice. Based on the insights from research with typically and atypically developing children, Kucirkova proposes personalised pluralisation, as a pedagogical framework of personalized education for the future. The book aims to help scholars and professionals understand the connections between personalization and literacy, personalization and education, and personalization and wider socio-moral issues.

Review: Numerical simulation approaches of crystalline‐Si photovoltaics
This study reviews the current methods of numerical simulations for crystalline‐Si (c‐Si) photovoltaic (PV) cells. The increased demand for PV devices has led to significant improvements in the performance of solar cell devices. The main contribution comes from c‐Si solar cells, which constitute 90% of the industry. Numerical analysis is effective for predicting, developing, and optimizing cell performances as the cell structures become more complex and include several parameters. However, conventional methods cannot simulate improved device structures with complex configurations. Additional physics is necessary to evaluate these cell structures. This study introduces methods for evaluating these cell structures using physical modeling and highlights the latest examples of simulations of c‐Si solar cells.

Towards a robotic architecture
The past decade's surge towards more computationally defined building systems and highly adaptable open-source design software has left the field ripe for the integration of robotics whether through large-scale building fabrication or through more intelligent/adaptive building systems. Through this surge, architecture has not only been greatly influenced by these emerging technologies, but has also begun influencing other disciplines in unexpected ways. The purpose of this book is to provide systems of classification, categorisation, and taxonomies of robotics in architecture so that a more systematic and holistic body of work could take place while addressing the multifarious aspects of possible research and production.
Device to Circuit Co‐Design Utilizing High‐Performance PEALD Indium‐Gallium‐Zinc Oxide Thin‐Film Transistor Enabling Technology Node Scaling in Monolithic 3D Systems
The development of oxide semiconductor devices for monolithic 3D (M3D) integration has largely remained at the device level, limiting progress toward large‐scale applications. To advance this technology, evaluation from device to circuit level—akin to CMOS—is essential. This work presents a comprehensive study of M3D‐compatible technology using indium‐gallium‐zinc oxide (IGZO) thin‐film transistors (TFTs) fabricated via plasma‐enhanced atomic layer deposition (PEALD). The investigation spans material characterization, device performance, technology computer‐aided design (TCAD) Modeling, circuit design, and scaling projections. At device level, comprehensive material and electrical characterizations elucidate intrinsic property interdependencies in IGZO TFTs, which exhibit a field‐effect mobility (µFE) up to 116.35 cm2 V−1·s−1, high reliability (△VTH < 0.15 V), and low variation (△µFE < 2%). These results enable accurate TCAD models for system‐level co‐design of unipolar TFT circuits, including pseudo‐CMOS inverters, 5‐stage ring oscillators (ROs), and static random‐access memory (SRAM) cells, all exhibiting robust functionality. For future technology scaling, projections to the 22 nm node show RO frequencies up to 240 MHz and SRAM switching times as low as 0.78 ns, with strong dynamic and noise characteristics. This work offers critical insight into circuit‐level performance of PEALD IGZO TFTs and provides valuable guidance for the implementation of oxide semiconductor‐based M3D systems. This article presents a holistic investigation of M3D‐compatible oxide semiconductor technology using PEALD‐fabricated IGZO TFTs, spanning device‐level characterization, TCAD Modeling, circuit design, and scaled‐node projections. It demonstrates high field‐effect mobility (up to 116.35 cm2 V−1·s−1), robust reliability (△VTH < 0.15 V), low variation (△µFE < 2%), and forecasts 240 MHz ring oscillators and 0.78 ns SRAM at 22 nm.

Design Analysis of Natural Lighting and Ventilation of Underground Garage with the Computer-aided Technology
In the analysis of the lighting and ventilation design mode of the underground garage, it is necessary to take the natural green environmental protection standard design as the main thought and pay attention to the influence of lighting on the car. According to the data simulation method and the overall design scheme standard, the specific range of numerical simulation standard is determined. Through the analysis of airflow change, distribution mode, air volume, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide concentration ratio level of underground garage, we can determine the actual ventilation design standards of underground garage and value more on the implementation of natural lighting and ventilation design scheme under green building mode. This paper analyzes the practical natural lighting application design method of green building underground garage with the computer-aided technology, combines the development of green building and building energy saving, lays emphasis on the ventilation and sewage effect of underground garage, strengthens the reasonable allocation and application of the overall lighting and ventilation of underground garage and finally clarifies the operation standard and design effect.
