Dear Friends,
It was a unique opportunity for me to participate in the Microsoft E2 Educator Exchange #HackTheClassroom which took place in Budapest between the 8th and 10th of March 2016, having been selected from thousands of educators worldwide to join a group of over 300 educators representing over 75 countries.
I was delighted to be welcomed to Microsoft’s Educator Exchange event where the most innovative educators from around the world came together and shared expertise in integrating technology and pedagogy to advance learning and transform education.
During the event I had the opportunity to learn, collaborate, teach and inspire. I also had the opportunity to be exposed to some of Microsoft’s latest technologies and to share and learn about the ways in which my fellow E2 educators are driving transformation in their own classrooms.
I also had the opportunity to learn about a number of innovative approaches to learning enabled by technology and to find out about various favorite ways to Hack the Classroom as well as to learn more about Minecraft and other game-based learning opportunities.
As an added bonus I had the great privilege of receiving an important award: the Group Challenge Class Hack Award: Minimize 2nd Runner Up.
In conclusion, this event gave me the opportunity to open my horizons and to learn how to integrate technology into quality teaching and to ensure students are equipped with the skills required for the 21st century.
