Special Issue on International Mobility in Education, Gamification in Education and Lifelong Learning

International Mobility in Education refers to globalization of education and involves educational programmes and institutions, course materials, students and faculty moving beyond national boundaries.

Gamification in Education is the integration of game mechanics and elements into traditionally non-game contexts.

Lifelong Learning is the "ongoing, voluntary, and self-motivated" pursuit of knowledge for either personal or professional reasons. Therefore, it not only enhances social inclusion, active citizenship, and personal development, but also self-sustainability, as well as competitiveness and employability (Wikipedia).

In this special issue, we intend to invite front-line researchers and authors to submit original research and review articles on exploring International Mobility in Education, Gamification in Education and Lifelong Learning. Potential topics include, but are not limited to:

● Trends in International Student Mobility

● International Mobility of Staff and Faculty

● Gamification and wearables technologies

● Lifelong learning and Information Communication Technologies

● Lifelong learning and distance education

● Lifelong learning and mobile learning

● Lifelong learning and Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs)
