About The Conference. Why You Should be There!
The Exponential Rate Of Change In Technology, Work, and the World
It's Time For Disruptive Innovative Learning!
Why Incremental Change is No Longer an Option!
Why Incremental Change is No Longer an Option!
Driven largely by technology we are seeing accelerating and dramatic disruption and transformation in the world, jobs and education. Mobile technology, self driving cars, drones delivering packages, Internet of Things connecting our refrigerators to our phones, robots in the workplace, new alternative energy solutions, global economies, retailers going out of business due to online sales, YouTube, Kahn Academy, and digital curriculum are just some examples of how rapidly and dramatically the world, work and education is changing.
How Students Learn and Relate to the World Is Also Changing Dramatically!
Our young people today are looking for engagement, creative opportunities and use of technology.
The Challenge! Implications For Education!
What, and how, we teach needs to be transformed to keep pace with these accelerating changes in technology, the world, and the workplace. The challenge is to provide the required knowledge, skills, learning experiences and teaching environments (not schools as we know them) for this new reality, for jobs that have not yet even been imagined, technologies that have not yet been invented and new challenges students will tackle.
Innovative Ideas and New Technologies Transforming Teaching and Learning
Innovative learning experiences and teaching environments, and new technologies will transform teaching and learning and enable a new generation of education and workforce development solutions in Arizona. Schools, universities, libraries, community colleges, and community organizations in Arizona need to adopt the latest and greatest technologies and implement exciting innovative learning experiences from blended learning, digital curriculum, innovative learning spaces, to mobile learning, individualized self paced learning, competency and outcome based education, flipped classrooms, adaptive learning models, Innovation Labs and Makerspaces, 3D printing, coding, project based learning, robotics, game based learning and virtual lab experiences, and more.
Vision, Policies and Strategic Plans
What does all this mean for Arizona and our K-12 Schools, Universities, Community Colleges, Libraries and Community Organizations?
