Futurelab, a UK-based organization focused on innovation in education, released the handbook “Promoting transformative innovation in schools.” The intent of the document is to provide insight into and illustrate the value of transformative innovation, as well as to provide recommendations of how to create a culture of innovation in schools.
Making a case for transformative innovation, Futurelab argues that “Increasingly it is recognised that there is a need to innovate to enable greater creativity, flexibility, learner input and so forth, and to deliver a more personalised educational system and foster new skills amongst learners.
The handbook goes on to look at the roadblocks and barriers to innovation, ultimately arguing that the potential benefits far outweigh the status quo. That is to say, transformative innovation has the potential to improve children’s education, and we should explore those opportunities. Futurelab is just trying to facilitate that process.
I say, what do we have to lose?
