There’s a reason learners today are increasingly attracted to the video game medium. Video games have a lot of thought and creativity poured into them to make them as exciting and artistic as possible. They encourage learners to bring out their artistic selves and express themselves in ways that they did not think possible.
It is impossible to understand the tech’s full potential if we continue looking at is as only a screen. Instead, we should begin thinking of it as a paintbrush. Essentially, we must stop looking at computer devices as machines and recognize them as new mediums for creativity.
Tech can be excellent in helping learners express their creativity. Here’s how:

Traditionally, the year 2020 has held great allure for future thinkers. One hundred years ago, at the turn of the 20th century,
the 21st century and the symmetrical date of 2020 in particular, inspired many dramatic predictions – from flying cars to living on
distant planets (though still apparently living in traditional nuclear families).
In real life, as we now know, the year 2020 was shocking for a completely different reason: the global COVID-19 pandemic and the accompanying economic, physical and social disruption. It was a painful and-all-too real reminder that comfortable assumptions about the future can change in an instant. In fact, there are always multiple versions of the future – some are assumptions, others hopes and fears. To prepare, we must consider not only the changes that appear most probable, but
also the ones that we are not expecting.
This paper argues that futures thinking is an essential component to leading education systems in increasingly uncertain times. Building on the Four OECD Scenarios for Schooling (OECD, 2020), which I wrote with my co-author Marc Fuster, it connects foresight and futures thinking to work on complexity and systems-thinking in education. It argues that we need to build long-term strategic thinking in education, and reinforce futures thinking to help identify potential opportunities and challenges and stress-test against unexpected shocks. Using the ideas generated in active discussion with a broad set of stakeholders, it can help us to better prepare and act now.

"Every once in a while a new edtech service comes along that as soon as I try it I know that it’s going to be a hit. That’s exactly how I felt when I tried Readlee for the first time last month.
Readlee is a new service that lets you create online reading assignments for your students to complete in your classroom or at home. That’s not what makes it great. What makes it great is found in how your students complete assignments and how you can view their assignment completion."

This series of reports explores new forms of teaching, learning and assessment for an interactive world, to guide teachers and policy makers in productive innovation. This tenth report proposes another set of innovations that are already in currency but have not yet had a profound influence on education. To produce the report, a group of academics at the Institute of Educational Technology in The Open University (UK) collaborated with researchers from the Open University of Catalonia (SPA). A long list of pedagogical innovations was proposed and then pared down to ten that have the potential to provoke major shifts in educational practice. Finally, ten sketches of innovative pedagogies were compiled, based on a review of published studies and other sources, and they are summarized below

Ed-tech, or educational technology, can have numerous benefits for children. It can enhance the learning experience, provide them with more opportunities, teach them real-world skills, and it can even help with developmental delays. Developmental delays are essentially skills or functions that are not quite at the level of what is required.

In our recent Campus Technology Leadership Summit, a panel of higher education leaders explored how technology can help institutions find efficiencies in IT and university administration — so that staff can spend less time on tedious tasks and more time focusing on supporting students' learning and the institution's mission. Brian Fodrey, senior director of business innovation at Carnegie Mellon University, served as moderator for the discussion, joined by panelists Sarah Collie, associate vice president for organizational excellence at the University of Virginia, and Joseph Drasin, senior director of enterprise planning and continuous improvement in the Division of IT at the University of Maryland. Here's their conversation. (The following has been edited for length and clarity.)

Had I been asked what I thought about online teaching two years ago, I would probably have given you quite an earful of the many known shortcomings of virtual teaching modalities, including the challenges to student engagement and community building. Ask me now and my answer could not be more different. Amid the latest push for a return to in-person teaching, many instructors have been adamant about the advantages of digital classrooms and look forward to continuing teaching online in a post-pandemic world. I am one of them.

For the past ten years, I’ve worked with edtech impact measurements. I’ve been developing edtech quality standards for the Asian Development Bank, Finland’s National Agency for Education, and Education Alliance Finland, a company I co-founded in 2015.
During that time edtech has been rising because there is an urgent need for an instrument that can dramatically improve education. From a global perspective, the current school system is unable to provide high-quality learning at scale and at an affordable cost. Millions of students are graduating every year without foundational literacy and numeracy skills.
