Linguistics, Literature and Cultural Studies are the three main research areas within Philology. Scientific production, such as conferences and journals, has tended towards specialization, and has been traditionally classified according to separate disciplines and languages. However, this volume offers a holistic view of the wide area of Philology, therefore allowing the permeability of the three areas mentioned above. As such, this book shows that the line that separates Linguistics, Literature and Cultural Studies is actually very thin. This volume is composed of a miscellanea of philological studies dealing with various trends in Modern Language research. It looks at three languages in particular: Spanish, English and French, with a special relevance to the first two.

Intelligence has long been a focal point and an explanatory framework of performance and behavior for researchers in psychology and cognitive science. However, the concept of “intelligence” has been explored through various metaphors and models. In 1990, Salovey and Mayer coined the term “emotional intelligence” (EI) with respect to a set of processes consisting of identifying and regulating emotions, and more generally, adapting behavior to this emotional context. Three decades later, this book compiles seven chapters introducing the most influential models of emotional intelligence, stressing the developmental trajectories that are related to EI dynamics as individuals age and delving into cognitive and neural activities associated with EI. Additionally, the book discusses the application of EI research to the contexts of everyday life choices, economic decision-making, and neuropsychological practice. Altogether, the various chapters also provide the opportunity to reconsider the intricate nature of what has often been considered separately as “cognitive” and “affective” processes.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 7th International Workshop on Learning Technology for Education Challenges, LTEC 2018, held in Žilina, Slovakia, in August 2018. The 25 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 54 submissions. The papers are organized in the following topical sections: Gamification and learning; learning and knowledge transfer; learning technologies applications; virtual learning environments; and mobile learning and MOOCs. LTEC 2018 examines how these technologies and pedagogical advances can be used to change the way teachers teach and students learn, while giving special emphasis to the pedagogically effective ways we can harness these new technologies in education.

The societies of the twenty-first century are subject to social, cultural, political, and economic changes. In this context, the school is asked to educate the future citizens in the present. To respond to this kaleidoscopic reality, the school is immersed in a pedagogical revolution. In this book, the reader will find a selection of avant-garde research works from different disciplines and contexts, which have their epicenter in the school and in the faculties of education. New issues in pedagogy and education, and new roles of teachers and students, are discussed in a global and diverse context. And new methodological and formative proposals are also proposed to build the ideal school and the ideal teacher, from the initial and continuous teacher training.

Despite international congresses and international journals, anthropologies of education differ significantly around the world. Linguistic barriers constrain the flow of ideas, which results in a vast amount of research on educational anthropology that is not published in English or is difficult for international readers to find. This volume responds to the call to attend to educational research outside the United States and to break out of “metropolitan provincialism.” A guide to the anthropologies and ethnographies of learning and schooling published in German, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, Slavic languages, Japanese, and English as a second language, show how scholars in Latin America, Japan, and elsewhere adapt European, American, and other approaches to create new traditions. As the contributors show, educators draw on different foundational research and different theoretical discussions. Thus, this global survey raises new questions and casts a new light on what has become a too-familiar discipline in the United States.
