This book provides a single source of reference for educators interested in understanding how industry-based ideas have been adapted into different educational contexts, and supports their utilisation in practice. The link between industry-based ideas and their application in education has enabled educators to develop engaging, collaborative, and creative learning environments, as well as better preparing their students for an increasingly complex and dynamic global environment. This book includes contributions from educators, researchers, and practitioners, who have integrated industry-based ideas into their teaching, and explores how these concepts and practices support the creation of effective learning environments. Through these diverse, international contributions, this book enables wider engagement with, and critical analysis of, the application of industry practices, processes and techniques in the development of collaborative and creative learning environments.

This book explores the application of agile and lean techniques, originally from the field of software development and manufacturing, to various aspects of education. It covers a broad range of topics, including applying agile teaching and learning techniques in the classroom, incorporating lean thinking in educational workflows, and using team-based approaches to student-centred activities based on agile principles and processes. Demonstrating how agile and lean ideas can concretely be applied to education, the book offers practical guidance on how to apply these ideas in the classroom or lecture hall, as well as new concepts that could spark further research and development.

Considering the minor settlements of England's Danelaw--villages known as thorps or throps--this history demonstrates how place-name evidence can be used to understand early cultures. By integrating linguistic and archaeological approaches, it establishes a compelling connection between the creation of these place-names and the fundamental changes taking place in the English landscape between AD 850 and 1250. The integral role of thorps in revolutionizing agricultural practice at that time is thoroughly analyzed.
