162 - Competency-Based Education in China 0
Sep 13, 2019

What's in this episode?

Hello everyone! 

In this week’s episode, we travel nearly 5000 miles from the UK to China, to talk about increasing interest in competency based education. Plus, a listener news item on a new partnership on UK Maths Edtech. 
 
First up, you’ll hear Edtech Podcast listener Sonnie Tan interviewing the Founder of KitCat, Michael Huang. In this interview with Sonnie, Michael talks about how he think the Gaokao exam will slowly develop to recognise student’s more creative needs, as well as knowledge of cutting edge technologies, and how to apply them, such as AI. 
 
Our second interview is with Yiwei Zhang, Director of International EdTech Projects at Rayee. Rayee is a knowledge provider on education within China, with a focus on well-rounded education rather than the exam-orientated K-12 after school tutoring market that you may have heard a lot about. In this recording you’ll hear from Yiwei about how shopping malls are providing space for students to broaden their learning, whilst their parents enjoy some recreation. What do you think about this set up?  
 

Stay in touch and have a great week!

What's in this episode?

Hello dear listeners, welcome to this new episode of The Edtech Podcast, the show that aims to improve the dialogue between ed and tech for better innovation and impact.

This week I’m super excited to share this first episode (yay!) of our new series The Voctech Podcast: learning continued, which seeks to explore the intersection of adult learning and tech. You can follow the conversation using #voctechpodcast and #voctech. 

A big shout out to Ufi Charitable trust and Ufi Ventures who made this new series possible; go and check out their fine work in developing innovative vocational technology to support workplace skills development. 

 This week is all about preparing the healthcare workforce to deliver the digital future, as set out in the Topol review, how to communicate training objectives across an enormous and diverse workforce, and how to assess new technologies and their impact on learning. Lots of transferable lessons for anyone utilising or deploying digital skills!
