Excerpt

I write here after participating in rich discussions in China and Thailand where educational technologists, faculty and government leaders shared ideas about the nexus of social good, education and new learning technologies. This column is a result of many talks among AECT Affiliate members and education leaders that, upon reflection, hovers around design thinking and leading system change in thriving education ecosystems finding themselves among the world’s fastest-growing economies.
