The Fourth Industrial Revolution is radically reshaping educational spaces. Robotics, the Internet of Things (IoT), Web3, blockchain, quantum computing, but specially artificial intelligence are transforming the way to teach and learn.
This book aims to conduct an in-depth study of the impact of the digital age in the university. This is carried out from a broad perspective encompassing interdisciplinary viewpoints, a wide range of areas, sectors, regions and countries
and the common denominator of the ethical governance of AI. This publication is a collaborative effort between university scholars and international experts, developed within the research group 'EU & Ethics Governance
of Artificial Intelligence' led by the Institute of European Studies and Human Rights at the Pontifical University of Salamanca.
