As we speak, it’s London Edtech Week in the UK so to celebrate we are putting out an episode of The Edtech Podcast every day! PHEW!
The new CEO of Instructure on lifelong learning, moving beyond bad legacy edtech investments in Kenya, new international online curriculums
This week’s episode is a live recording at WISE Paris earlier this year, where we cover T-shaped learners (broad and deep), what Greek mythology can tell us about the modern day role of the mentor, and how formative culture and parents are in the learning journey. Naturally, we also throw in a bit of machine learning, investment and pedagogy.
This week’s episode in the series looks at how universities and colleges are thinking big with tech to improve their student and staff experiences
This week we look at creating a digital literacy global standard, supporting long-term involvement of women and girls in STEM and new early stage edtech.
A review of Leapfrogging Inequality by Rebecca Winthrop, by various The Edtech Podcast listeners. In Leapfrogging Inequality, researchers chart a new path for global education by examining the possibility of leapfrogging—harnessing innovation to rapidly accelerate educational progress—to ensure that all young people develop the skills they need for a fast-changing world. What do our listeners think?
This week we throwback to my visit to Dubai in March. I was visiting the Global Education and Skills Forum, which hosts the global teacher prize and the next billion prize. The next billion edtech prize was launched by the The Varkey Foundation to recognise the most innovative technology destined to have a radical impact on education in low income and emerging world countries. In this episode you’ll hear a variety of voices from Tanzania, USA, Egypt, India, and the UK (via Belgium).
Welcome to episode three of the Education 4.0 series co-curated with Jisc. This week’s episode of our series looks at where, when and how will learning happen when many of us spend lots of time online.
Hi everyone and welcome to The Edtech Podcast. Our mission is to improve the dialogue between “ed” and “tech” and this week’s no different as we delve into some listener feedback on the edtech strategy published last week by the department for education in the UK.
Hello! This week you’ll hear from a panel of teachers from around the world and in wildly different settings on what they want from edtech. This episode was recorded LIVE at the Global Education and Skills World Forum. Enjoy, and send us your feedback and comments!
