The introduction of new technologies into the various contexts – training, social, educational, entertainment – produces a truly consistent and complex domino effect. The purpose of the Series is to explore the relationship between technologies and formal and informal learning contexts according to a historical-cultural, socio-constructivist and multidisciplinary perspective (psychological, social, educational, aesthetic, artistic, political, economic). Therefore, the starting assumptions concern: a) the role of the context, considered as rooted in technologies; b) the vision of technologies as tools of cultural mediation and knowledge construction. The Series aims to host monographs, curatorships, collections and Italian translations of foreign volumes of particular relevance on the international scene. There will be, therefore, textbooks, research, in-depth and informative texts. The analysis of the role of technologies in training contexts is always in the foreground. The Series represents a dissemination organ of the Collaborative Knowledge Building Group (CKBG), an association which occupies a consolidated position in the Italian panorama. The titles published so far are: 1. Identity, learning and virtual communities. Online tools and activities (O. Albanese , M. B. Ligorio , M. Assunta Zanetti) 2. Blended teaching manual. The model of “Collaborative and Constructive Participation” (M.B. Ligorio, N. Sansone) 3. Do and collaborate. The Trialogical Approach to Learning (D. Cesareni, M.B. Ligorio, N. Sansone) 4. Media education in early childhood (0-6). Paths, practices and perspectives (R. Metastasio) Proposals for publication should be sent to: M.
