On 9-11 November 2021, EDUtech Asia will once again bring together the entire education ecosystem across Asia Pacific and beyond to explore how technology is impacting the way we learn and teach.
Over the three days, over 250 expert speakers from K-12 Schools and higher education Institutions will be addressing 20+ key themes such as new pedagogies, AI in education, learning technologies, virtual classrooms, digital assessments, wellbeing and many more.
Headlining the festival agenda are seven international education visionaries. Diane Tavenner, Co-Founder and CEO, Summit Public Schools will open the conference with her insights on creating the schools our children deserve by championing equity, access and wellbeing. In the afternoon, Award-Winning Teacher and Author of “Disruptive Classroom Technologies”, Dr Sonny Magana will discuss his recent breakthrough research findings on Cyber Schooling That Works. Rounding up the day, Pooja K. Agarwal, Ph.D, Cognitive Scientist and Author of “Powerful Teaching: Unleash the Science of Learning”, will talk about the foundation of what the science of learning is and how students can use it to study smarter – not harder.
On day two, Justin Reich, Associate Professor in Digital Media, MIT and Author of “Failure to Disrupt: Why Technology Alone Can’t Transform Education” separates truth from hype, explaining what technology can–and can’t–do to transform our classrooms and argue why successful reform efforts will focus on incremental improvements, not the next killer app. Building on that, Anne Johnstone, Principal, Ravenswood School for Girls, and Chair, Positive Education Schools Association will explore the Transformative Potential of Positive Education in Challenging Times.
On the final day, Shui-min Tan, Chief Information Technology Officer, National University of Singapore and Calum Chace, Author, AI Expert take over the keynote stage. Shui-min will share why the IT leader role in education has never been more important to the success of schools and higher education institutions, while Calum will discuss the extraordinary achievements and promise of AI, its likely impact on education, and why we are living in humanity’s most important century – a thought-provoking session not to be missed.
