This book explores a range of technological and legal matters introduced to the education system by recent and significant technological developments. It delves into the transformation of education systems resulting from the Covid-19 pandemic, which presented various new challenges and threats that educational institutions were compelled to address. While most education policies prioritize innovation and smart technologies as crucial drivers of global economic growth, it is essential to acknowledge that inadequate preparedness for future digital transformations may result in missed opportunities for social and economic growth. Thus, the book comprehensively addresses the complexity of legal and ethical key issues related to technological development and the use of smart technologies in and for education. Its goal is to contribute to the global commitment to safeguarding the right to education in an ever-evolving technological landscape.
