Book: Open Book of Educational Innovation

Europa / 19 de Noviembre de 2017 / Autor: Alexandra Hanna Licht, Evita Tasiopoulou, Patricia Wastiau / Fuente: European School Net

Launched at EMINENT 2017the ‘Open Book of Educational Innovation’examines how innovation, especially technology-inspired innovation is defined, showcasing over a hundred ground-breaking initiatives in schools across Europe.

Innovation in education is a tough challenge: it is hard to identify it and to know when it can be considered mature enough to be evaluated. And yet, innovation happens daily in education everywhere, but it is normally hidden away, too granular, too small-scale to attract widespread attention. We also do not have easy and accepted ways of modelling innovation: top-down versus bottom-up; the process from idea to implementation and evaluation; how fertile and receptive our educational ecosystems are; and of course the role of education authorities in capturing, supporting, and sharing innovation.

The ‘Open Book of Educational Innovation’ is European Schoolet’s first attempt to start making educational innovation more visible, pin down what it is, how it comes about, and how it can be fostered, evaluated and then disseminated. It is intended to support all those involved in education innovation: policymakers who can help to create the right conditions; practitioners eager to learn and innovate; those who conduct research on innovation; and foundations and enterprises which can fund and promote innovative practices.

So what next? In our next edition of our Open Book of Educational Innovation, we hope to widen our sources and partners to enable us to provide an even richer and more diversified map of innovation. We would happy be to hear what you think of this first edition and get in touch if you have any comments or ideas for our next edition.

Book: Fair Progress? : Educational Mobility Around the World

World Bank / 22 de octubre de 2017 / Fuente: World Bank Group

PREVIEW for book expected March 2018: Fair Progress? Educational Mobility Around the World will look at an issue that has gotten much attention in the developed world, but with, for the first time, new data and analysis covering most of the developing world. The analysis looks at whether those born in poverty or in prosperity are destined to remain in the same economic circumstances into which they were born, and looks back over a half a century at whether children’s lives are better or worse than their parents’ in different parts of the world. It suggests local, national, and global actions and policies that can help break the cycle of poverty, paving the way for the next generation to realize their potential and improve their lives.
