A Framework for Powerful Learning with Emerging Technology

The rise of emerging technologies offer education leaders, educators, learners, and edtech developers an opportunity to reimagine learning experiences to support powerful learning. This framework puts forward research-based, field-informed guidelines that considers both the opportunities and challenges that come with emerging technologies. The framework offers guidance to design and implement emerging technology tools in ways that are evidence-based, learner-centered, and skill-building. To develop the framework, we interviewed more than 50 experts across the field, collaborated with a working group of 10 distinguished professionals, and conducted a literature review to ground the topics that surfaced in research-based insights. These activities led to the identification of key principles, practices and strategies to design and implement technology for powerful learning.
