Emerging Trends that Redefine Education in the 21st Century
As we head towards the end of the first decade of the new millennium, high expectations have been set for schools to meet the needs of the continually discussed 21st century Learner. To give some perspective on this, it is worthwhile to explore the trends that are emerging, that will leverage technology and have the “potential” to genuinely transform education in substantial, meaningful and sustainable ways. Bruce’s presentation will present a context and framework within which teachers and school leaders can re-imagine what technology might make possible for schools in the future.
