Innovating Pedagogy · Editorial
‘Metaverse’, 'artificial intelligence' and ‘Entrepreneurial education’ feature among the latest innovations for the future of education in the 11th edition of the Innovating Pedagogy Report.
The Innovating Pedagogy 2023 report, produced by academics in The Open University's (OU) Institute of Educational Technology (IET) and the Centre for Innovation in Learning and Teaching at the University of Cape Town, focuses on challenges in learning across physical and virtual spaces.
The annual report is the latest edition in the esteemed series, providing innovative research in teaching, learning and assessment. The Innovating Pedagogy reports are developed for the use of teachers, policy makers, academics, students, researchers, educational technology designers, as well as anyone who is interested in pedagogical innovation and changes throughout education.
In her introduction to the report, lead author, Agnes Kukulska-Hulme, Professor of Learning Technology and Communication in IET, writes:
“This year we have 'pedagogies using AI tools', ‘relational pedagogies’ and ‘entangled pedagogies of learning spaces’, along with approaches highlighting entrepreneurship and education in the Metaverse.”
Professor Kukulska-Hulme adds:
“All this seems to represent what can be described as a trend towards “a multiplicity of technologies, methods and modalities” available for a learning experience, meaning that several media and modes of communication and delivery can support teaching, learning and assessment across a range of contexts and spaces.
“It makes for a potentially complex teaching and learning environment where student activity needs to be ‘orchestrated’, as explained in our section on ‘Entangled pedagogies of learning spaces’ in this report. It has, however, the advantage of offering more options to suit different circumstances and student needs and it can support combining formal teaching and independent or informal learning.“
