We are leaders in online learning. Glow provides us with a common platform to take this forward. 30 local authorities and 3 universities are now signed up to develop their use of Glow – the others are on the path considering how they too will make use Glow. This provides us with an unparalleled opportunity for collaboration and sharing, on an unprecedented scale. That said, we don’t rest on our laurels. We take our role as guides in this new learning landscape very seriously indeed, and constantly search the horizon to see what’s coming up next and assessing it’s validity in an educational context.
On the horizon at the moment is augmented reality – where technology interacts with physical objects – explaining this is virtually impossible and would in no way do it justice, so I’ll pass over to Ollie Bray our Adviser for … to show you.
