Breakout EDU is a popular platform for immersive learning games that promote critical thinking and collaboration in classrooms. Teachers can choose between physical games, which require a Breakout EDU box and locks, or digital games that can be played using internet-connected devices. With a variety of game options available, students work together to solve puzzles and unlock the box within a set time limit, fostering creativity and a growth mindset.

Revisiting the idea to encourage deeper thinking. should it be renamed project -based inquiry? this article argues it is time " to reinvent it in a way that leads to deeper learning, creative inquiry, and a better fit with a collaborative world in which doing and knowing are one thing."

Many times when we learn we use many tools. They may be our minds or they may be outside objects. This is how we put them together and use it for the better.

that it’s important for young people to become economically independent and self-sufficient. But to do that, he argues, they shouldn’t all learn the same thing. Instead, they should be learning to be adaptable, to be innovative, to flow with change, to collaborate and other globalized skills that will apply to whatever area of work they are passionate about pursuing. An education can help expose students to different life paths and support them in finding their passions, while giving them the transferable skills to attack any problem.

Microsoft recently showcased a new Skype feature that allows for real-time, two-way, voice translation! This feature will make the Skype Cultural Exchange even more extensible and will allow those who use Skype for non-native language acquisition to have in-depth conversations, in their own languages, about their progress and issues in their learning.
