Alma Mater Europaea University has published a new peer-reviewed volume of conference proceedings, It’s About People for 2024–2025, bringing together the latest research and professional contributions from the fields of upbringing, education, and mental health.
Education as a space of humanity
Education is more than the transmission of information – it is a process of shaping the person at a time when we face uncertainty, digital overload, and growing mental health challenges. The volume highlights how the interweaving of pedagogy, psychology, technology, and philosophy can create a more humane, compassionate, and ethically oriented educational environment.
Key themes of the volume
Contributions by renowned authors provide insight into issues that strongly shape contemporary and future education:
- Youth mental health, which is under increasing pressure from contemporary lifestyles,
- The importance of sleep as a fundamental factor in cognitive and emotional development,
- Family dynamics, which significantly shape a child’s learning and well-being,
- The Ethical Challenges of Artificial Intelligence in Practice and the Future of L Pedagogical Practice.
A call for human-centered education
The volume emphasizes that genuine progress in education extends beyond technological development and is primarily manifested in nurturing what is deeply human: inner stability, empathy, integrity, and a responsible relationship with others. The authors note that these values are crucial to the formation of individuals who can meet the challenges of the modern world.
