S3/Ep.03 - Boys, Technology, and Learning Relationships

Loading player...
Get insight into the recent IBSC-commissioned report Building Learning Relationships Through the Use of Technology directly from leader of the study Professor Alison Clark-Wilson, principal research fellow at the UCL Knowledge Lab. With a special focus on boys' education, the research illuminates how technology can help and hinder productive learning relationships. Clark-Wilson also offers advice about emerging technologies that may impact the relational component of teaching and learning, technology that seems to add the greatest value to learners, and how schools might evaluate which technology to keep as they return to post-pandemic in-person learning.
