This book delves into the contemporary education paradox between traditional and digital education, with particular emphasis on the contemporary digital education tools and technologies that can facilitate education practices beyond pedagogy. The central argument of this book is that traditional education methods are no longer sufficient to meet the needs of education institutions and stakeholders, which is why digital education is the future to satisfy these needs. It considers the holistic nature of education practice beyond pedagogy and digital education technology to include other practices such as knowledge management, policy, and ethics, among other practices led by contemporary ICTs. It will be a vitally important resource for scholars and students of education practice, emerging technologies and innovation management, as well as business and organisational ethics.
