Contemporary Perspectives on Learning Environments
Contemporary Perspectives on Learning Environments is an interdisciplinary book series that critically examines the evolving dynamics of learning environments across all educational spaces, including formal, informal, traditional, non-traditional, and hybrid. The series explores how physical, digital, emotional, sociocultural, and political contexts shape and are shaped by teaching and learning processes in diverse settings.
With an emphasis on innovation, creativity, and inclusion, this series invites contributions that investigate how educational environments, from traditional classrooms and online platforms to community-based, intergenerational, and cross-sectoral spaces, can promote success, engagement, and well-being. It highlights the ways stakeholders (e.g., educators, learners) and communities co-construct knowledge through affective, cognitive, spiritual, and embodied experiences.
The series welcomes conceptual, empirical, and practitioner-oriented works, including edited volumes and monographs. Prospective topics include (but are not limited to):
Emotionally supportive and trauma-informed learning environments
Community colleges and non-traditional learning settings
Multilingual and multicultural classrooms
Digital and AI-enhanced educational spaces
Nature-connected and sustainability-oriented pedagogies
Decolonial and critical approaches to space and learning
Learning design for neurodiverse and differently abled learners
Social-emotional learning and well-being in educational environments
Culturally responsive and place-based education
School-family-community partnerships as learning ecosystems
