Sharing independent insights on the big, unanswered questions in education


ABOUT

Open Ideas at Pearson

Pearson’s goal is to help people make progress in their lives through learning. This means we are always learning too.

This series of publications, Open Ideas, is one of the ways in which we do this. We work with some of the best minds in education – from teachers and technologists, to researchers and big thinkers – to bring their independent ideas and insights to a wider audience.

How do we learn, and what keeps us motivated to do so? What is the body of knowledge and skills that learners need as we move into the second half of the 21st century? How can smart digital technologies be best deployed to realise the goal of a more personalised education? How can we build education systems that provide high quality learning opportunities to all?

These questions are too important for the best ideas to stay only in the lecture theatre, on the bookshelf, or alone in one classroom. Instead they need to be found and supported, shared and debated, adopted and refined.

Our hope is that Open Ideas helps with this task, and that you will join the conversation.

OPEN IDEAS AT PEARSON

Pearson

Pearson is the world’s learning company, with expertise in educational courseware and assessment, and a range of teaching and learning services powered by technology.

Our mission is to help people make progress through access to better learning. We believe that learning opens up opportunities, creating fulfilling careers and better lives.

UCL Knowledge Lab

The UCL Knowledge Lab (previously known as the London Knowledge Lab) is an interdisciplinary research centre at the UCL Institute of Education, University College London. Our mission is both to understand and to design ways in which new digital technologies can support

and transform learning and teaching throughout the life course, at home and at work.

We start from the belief that new technologies, when we fully exploit their possibilities, will change not only the ways we learn, but what we learn, as well as how we work, how we collaborate, and how we communicate. Based on research and evidence, we are devising new pedagogies, implementing innovative digital systems, developing new areas of knowledge, and informing policy- makers and educational stakeholders.
