The Digital Student: Challenges for Universities in a Post-Covid World and How to Address Them provides a thorough discussion of digital pedagogy, enabling readers to understand effective digital teaching methodologies, particularly post-Covid, to enhance online learning experiences and quality. The book discusses issues that have little coverage elsewhere, including the social dimension of online student life, the needs of neurodiverse students, those with mental health concerns and acknowledges that students differ in their level of awareness and competency of how to operate within the digital world. Insights into the impact of digital technologies on student well-being and mental health are discussed and ways that students can be supported are suggested. Online harms to students posed by digital environments are explored, together with cybersecurity and strategies to mitigate the risks. Guidance is provided on digital policy development and implementation. Strategies are suggested to help universities adapt to the evolving digital landscape. A self-assessment tool is provided enabling universities to benchmark their policies and activities against best practice in order to develop and enhance their digital operations
