Creating Holistic Technology-Enhanced Learning Experiences: Tales from a Future School in SingaporeCreating Holistic Technology-Enhanced Learning Experiences: Tales from a Future School in Singapore

The global level of economic, ecological, social, political and cultural integration across nation states and the rapid advancement of technology have brought about transformations that are part of globalisation. Our students are expected to be agents of change rather than passive observers of world events; and at the same time, to live together in an increasingly diverse and complex society and to reflect on and interpret fast changing information.
