Co-create the future of education together with us!

Schools are slowly starting to look at technology as an opportunity to develop teaching methods and resonate with students on a technology level. Regardless of age, almost everyone owns a smartphone. Google is our library, and Wikipedia is our encyclopedia. Thesaurus is our dictionary, and Kindle is our textbook. At a time like this, learning to change our teaching methods by incorporating technology is the only way to bring light to the lives of our students. What are schools doing in order to bring about this change?

These are the exciting challenges that you can solve.

These exciting challenges are waiting to be solved by you.

How can we predict student performance to give customised feedback?

Predict performance of students by analyzing historical and current data derived from learners, in order to create models that allow for predictions that improve the learning environment.

How we can improve the sharing of individual learning units?

What digital tools would help us get better in sharing learning units, such as interesting lab results and experiments, filmed study visits, interesting high-level advanced simulations etc, between teachers, towards and between students, over university boundaries and internationally?

How can you help other students succeed in a digital world?

To identify and connect with the person who can offer the best help in a given scenario is a big challenge for any student. It could be a teacher, but in many cases the go to person is one of the students's peers. How can we improve this situation?

Check out our challenges!
