As New York is preparing to host the global education innovation festival that is ny edtech week, down the road in Philadelphia the likes of Google, Microsoft, IBM, Harvard, Wharton & education innovators from all over the world gathered for the ‘Reimagine Education’ conference, including our own mover and shaker, Patrick Brothers!
Patrick shared the view (almost!) from the front row. A recent panellist at the AFR Higher Education Summit and fresh off the stage at the ‘Incubators and Accelerators’ session in at Reimagine Education, Patrick shared the very latest innovations and insights on the education landscape and gives a view over the education horizon.

BACKSTAGE PASS
4
o Decades long pendulum. Are we seeing a swing?
o Past two decades, focus on traditional. Now we are focused
on Deep, Project Based and Personalised Learning
o Technology as a platform, for collaboration, analytics
o Talented teachers must be at the centre…. but model won’t
scale.
o Polarised Distribution. Conservative, teacher centric – “don’t
be so naïve” versus progressive, technology/student centric =
“you are protectionist”
