Chapter Three highlights the evolution of the Portuguese scientific system over recent decades. Chapter Four focuses on the use of music as an educational modality to help children with language and learning problems. Chapter Five presents a technological ecosystem for classroom management that offers electronically mediated classroom support with engaging activities and learning strategies. Chapter Six describes an intervention program that was developed to raise awareness of cyberbullying and help children acquire effective coping strategies. Chapter Seven examines how using e-learning technology with graphical music representations can lead to increased confidence levels in students who have no prior music training. Chapter Eight analyzes student behaviors collected from three different learning management systems used in distance learning. Chapter Nine describes various types of nursing curricula with a special focus on the role of conceptual frameworks in shaping curricula. Finally, Chapter Ten provides an overview of the historical development of pedagogical approaches in nursing education.
