Online Learning Futures : An Evidence Based Vision for Global Professional Collaboration on Sustainability
The rapid shift online during the Covid-19 pandemic has put online learning firmly on the agenda of universities everywhere and to realise fully the transformative potential of online learning this book argues the need for an evidence-based design approach.The evidence comes from the experiences of online learners who are professionals: educators, engineers, medics and researchers.Designbased research, learner contributions, survey responses and interviews with these learners demonstrate that open, online, collaborative learning experiences are not only feasible but effective for building professional community knowledge. Innovative online learning of this kind can help universities contribute to the global public good by achieving high quality learning at scale.The open online platforms being used in the book widen global access to professional education and create more porous boundaries between universities and the wider community.This is critical for achieving, for example, the full impact of the current policy discussions on the UN SDGs, such as climate and inequality.The evidence-base shows how co-designed, transformative digital education can be mobilised to support professionals such as teachers in crisis contexts, government officials investigating renewable energy solutions, or medics adapting treatments to local conditions.It also shows how to scale up professional development in areas where expertise is urgently required.The book concludes that scaled-up online learning can enable HE to deliver on the UN SDGs by equipping citizens and communities with the knowledge and skills needed to solve the world’s most pressing problems.

What is the relationship between vision strength and growth?
Vision strength and growth are closely related, as a child's visual development is directly linked to their overall growth and development. Good vision is essential for a child's ability to learn, explore, and interact with the world around them, which in turn supports their physical and cognitive growth. Conversely, vision problems can hinder a child's development and may lead to delays in learning and overall growth. Regular eye exams and proper vision care are important for ensuring that a child's vision is developing appropriately and supporting their overall growth and well-being.

What are the symptoms of double vision and blurry vision?
Double vision, also known as diplopia, is a condition where a person sees two images of a single object. This can be caused by misalignment of the eyes, nerve damage, or certain medical conditions. Blurry vision, on the other hand, is a loss of sharpness in vision, making objects appear out of focus or hazy. Both double vision and blurry vision can be symptoms of underlying health issues such as diabetes, cataracts, or neurological disorders. It is important to seek medical attention if experiencing these symptoms to determine the underlying cause and receive appropriate treatment.

Can Dolby Vision be used on a TV without Dolby Vision?
No, Dolby Vision cannot be used on a TV that does not support Dolby Vision. Dolby Vision is a high dynamic range (HDR) format that requires both content and display devices to be compatible with it in order to experience its benefits. If a TV does not support Dolby Vision, it will not be able to display content in Dolby Vision format, and the user will not be able to take advantage of its enhanced color, contrast, and brightness capabilities.
