3D Immersive and InteractiveLearning3D technology is not new; research on 3D startedback in early 1960s. But unlike in previous times,3D technology has now rapidly entered our daily lifefrom cinema to office to home. Using 3D for edu-cation is a new yet challenging task. This book willpresent several innovative efforts using 3D for immer-sive and interactive learning covering a wide spec-trum of education including gifted program, normal(technical) stream, and special needs education. Thebook will also share experience on curriculum-based3D learning in classroom setting and co-curricu-lum-based 3D student research projects. The book isorganized as follows.

Open Learning CulturesA Guide to Quality, Evaluation, and Assessmentfor Future Learning

Today we are seeing a new form of blended learn-ing: not only is technology enhancing the learningenvironment but formal and informal learning arecombining and there is self- and peer-assessment ofresults. Open learning cultures are challenging the oldand long-practiced methods used by educators andtransforming learning into a more student-driven andindependent activity , which uses online tools such asblogs, wikis or podcasts to connect resources, studentsand teachers in a novel way.While in higher educa-tion institutions most assessments are still tied to for-mal learning scenarios, teachers are more and morebound to recognize their students’ informal learningprocesses and[...]

This is done both by crit-ically engaging with other disciplines (feminist the-ory, sociology, medical anthropology, psychoanalysis,cognitive science) and by developing novel interpreta-tions of the work of classical phenomenologists. Theconcrete phenomena analyzed in this book include:chronic pain, anorexia, shame and depression.

Values of Our TimesContemporary Axiological Research in China

Philosophers have gradually accepted axiology as onebranch of philosophy. As a basic category belong-ing to axiology and philosophy, "value" is the generalabstraction of concrete value formation in variousfields including utility, ethics and appreciation of thebeauty. The problem of value is essentially a prob-lem of historical activities of practice in human soci-ety. The axiology based on the scientific practice viewinsists on the principle of unification between the-ory and practice, truth and value. In research of axiol-ogy, the relation between subjectivity and objectivityof values is a problem that must be solved in the firstplace. The modern conversation of value philoso-phy[...]

Adaptive Logics for DefeasibleReasoningApplications in Argumentation, NormativeReasoning and Default Reasoning

This book presents adaptive logics as an intuitive andpowerful framework for modeling defeasible reason-ing. It examines various contexts in which defeasiblereasoning is useful and offers a compact introduc-tion into adaptive logics. The author first familiarizesreaders with defeasible reasoning, the adaptive log-ics framework, combinations of adaptive logics, anda range of useful meta-theoretic properties. He thenoffers a systematic study of adaptive logics based onvarious applications. The book presents formal mod-els for defeasible reasoning stemming from differentcontexts, such as default reasoning, argumentation,

The March of TimeEvolving Conceptions of Time in the Light ofScientific Discoveries

The aim of this interdisciplinary study is to recon-struct the evolution of our changing conceptions oftime in the light of scientific discoveries. It will adopta new perspective and organize the material aroundthree central themes, which run through our historyof time reckoning: cosmology and regularity; stasisand flux; symmetry and asymmetry. It is the physi-cal criteria that humans choose – relativistic effectsand time-symmetric equations or dynamic-kinematiceffects and asymmetric conditions – that establish ourviews on the nature of time. This book will defend adynamic rather than a static view of time.

Within thisbroad arena, a question of central importance is onhow gender roles in immigrant families play out inthe lives of children and families. Gender Roles inImmigrant Families places[...]

'Archaeologizing' Heritage?Transcultural Entanglements between LocalSocial Practices and Global Virtual Realities

This book investigates what has constituted notionsof "archaeological heritage" from colonial times tothe present. It includes case studies of sites in Southand Southeast Asia with a special focus on Angkor,Cambodia. The contributions, the subjects of whichrange from architectural and intellectual history tohistoric preservation and restoration, evaluate histor-ical processes spanning two centuries which saw theimagination and production of "dead archaeologicalruins" by often overlooking living local, social, andritual forms of usage on site. Case studies from com-putational modelling in archaeology discuss a compa-rable paradigmatic change from a mere simulation ofsupposedly[...]

Yoga TravelingBodily Practice in Transcultural Perspective

This book focuses on yoga’s transcultural dissemina-tion in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. In thecourse of this process, the term “yoga” has been asso-ciated with various distinctive blends of mental andphysical exercises performed in order to achieve somesort of improvement, whether understood in terms ofesotericism, fitness, self-actualization, body aesthetics,or health care. The essays in this volume explore some

of the turning points in yoga’s historico-spatial evo-lution and their relevance to its current appeal. Theauthors focus on central motivations, sites, and agentsin the spread of posture-based yoga as well as on itssuccessive (re-)interpretation and[...]

Continuity and Change inCultural Adaptation to MountainEnvironmentsFrom Prehistory to Contemporary Threats

Up until now, mountain ecosystems have not beenclosely studies by social scientists as they do not offera readily defined set of problems for human exploita-tion as, do for instance, tropical forests or arctic habi-tats. But the archaeological evidence had shown thathumans have been living in this type of habitat forthousands of year.  From this evidence we can also seethat mountainous regions are often frontier zones ofcompeting polities and form refuge areas for dissidentcommunities as they often are inherently difficult tocontrol by centralized authorities. As a consequencethey fuel or contribute disproportionately to politicalviolence.  But we are now witnessing changes[...]

Political sciencehas moved from describing institutions to the thor-ough analysis of behavior within these institutionsand the interactions between them.

So, too,has there been a lack of a single source representingthe diversity of geographical, historic, thematic, andtheoretical contexts that ships’ graveyard sites anddeliberately abandoned vessels represent.

Early models were developedto capture the realities of the criminal justice system,to identify what changes were needed, and how smallchanges would affect the overall picture.  Significanttime and effort were devoted to these projects andalthough they achieved some success, the complexnature of the criminal justice system and the difficul-ties associated with improving and maintaining themodels prohibited wide spread adoption in the field.  Some of the problems with early simulation projectswere the lack of data to validate models, the lack oftechnical skills needed by staff to design and buildthe[...]

Wanted and Welcome?Policies for Highly Skilled Immigrants inComparative Perspective

This book considers the origins, performance anddiffusion of national immigration policies targetinghighly skilled immigrants. Unlike asylum seekersand immigrants admitted under family reunificationstreams, highly skilled immigrants are typically castas “wanted and welcome” as a consequence of theirpotential economic contribution to the receiving soci-ety and putative assimilability. Testing the degree to

which this assumption holds is the principle aim ofthis book. In contrast to publications which see highlyskilled immigration as functional response to labormarket needs, the book probes the political and soci-ological dimensions of policy, drawing on contribu-tions from an[...]

It traces an alternative and largely unacknowledgedside of the history of this popular British periodical,and simultaneously casts a wide-reaching compara-tive glance on the genesis  of satirical journalism invarious Asian countries. Demonstrating the spreadof both textual and visual satire, it is an apt demon-stration of the transcultural trajectory of a format inti-mately linked to media-bound public spheres evolvingin the period concerned.
