Twenty-first century learning seems to be the current buzz word, but do we really know what twenty-first century is. How can we predict what learning might look like in 20 - 50 years time.

Open learning spaces, interactive whiteboards and flexible laptop solutions. Have they really made a difference? In some schools yes, but for many, it has has made little difference or has it had a negative impact on student learning overall.

Successful schools have a vision and a deep understanding of 21st century learning. These schools also invest in quality professional development and encourage champions to become greater champions in the classroom.

The biggest challenge for schools in the next five years will certainly be smart phones in schools. These devices and with a range of exciting personal electronic devices will allow 21st century learning to move to a new dimension in schools. To create digital citizens, every school needs to upskill staff and to educate students and about the positives and negatives of the devices as well as how they can enhance learning and teaching in schools.

Innovative schools use innovative technology and have innovative teachers who have undertaken innovative professional development.

7th National Interactive Teaching and Learning Conference - Feedback
Greg's opening keynote was one of the most engaging and inspiring presentations i have seen. I have been to most of the major conferences around the world and this was as good or if not better than the opening keynotes at NECC, BECTA and others.
