This book presents a collection of papers that explore various aspects of educational virtual environments, the future of education, project-based learning (PBL), and digital education strategy and engineering pedagogy. The authors highlight the significant transformation that is taking place in the development of education, particularly in post-secondary education, and emphasize the need for innovative and effective solutions to address these challenges. The pandemic has brought about profound changes in the way we teach and learn, with the widespread use of new communication tools and the increasing adoption of artificial intelligence tools by students. The 26th International Conference on Interactive Collaborative Learning (ICL2023), held in Madrid, Spain, from September 26 to 30, 2023, provided a platform for presenting and discussing current trends in higher education. The conference has been a forum for exchanging relevant trends and research results, as well as presenting practical experiences in learning and engineering pedagogy. The authors aim to bridge the gap between 'pure scientific research and the everyday work of educators' by providing a platform for the exchange of ideas and experiences. The intended readership includes policy makers, academics, educators, researchers in pedagogy and learning theory, schoolteachers, learning industry, further and continuing education lecturers, and others interested in the field of education.
