REFORMING EDUCATION IS RIGHTLY SEEN ASONE OF THE BIGGEST CHALLENGES OF OUR

TIMES. IN MY VIEW, REFORM IS NOT ENOUGH:

THE REAL CHALLENGE IS TO TRANSFORM

EDUCATION FROM A 19TH CENTURY INDUS-

TRIAL MODEL INTO A 21STCENTURY PROCESS.

Todays lifelong learners face a very different world than their parents did.

They will live longer and have more freedom than ever to choose their

experiences, social networks, and values. The rollercoaster of scientificand technological (sci-tech) change runs faster every year, spinning us

irreversibly toward a very extraordinary future. Our planet is wiring up into

one vast, instantaneous, transparent and increasingly intelligent global

network, which creates amazing new opportunities for business and

society.

Yet there are great challenges ahead as well. The world is now so

interconnected that big problems in any given place are becoming

A NEWWORLD OF

LEARNING

everyones problem. This constant change will require todays learners to

change their future faster, learn new technology and networking skills

more frequently, and consider the environment they live in from anentirely different perspective. They will also be challenged to keep learning

every day and thus should experience these educational duties as a right

to learn. The Internet and technological growth have induced a paradigm

shift, changing the way business is conducted. The specialized training and

education requirements for current and future employees and the lack of

access to diverse employee pools contribute to the problems companies

experience in employing a strong and diverse employee base. According

to recent studies, ICT skills are becoming an increasingly important entry

ticket to all levels of the job market. In addition, the same studies indicate

that most European workers see the gap between the expectations of and

requirements for ICT skills of their future employers and their own actualskills increase year by year.

The gap between demand & supply for ICT literate employees imposes

costs on business in the form of lost productivity, hiring and recruiting

costs and limits on growth. This calls for a different approach than the

actions taken so far, such as changing the place of ICT education in our

curriculums, and boosting social inclusion through innovation and training.

INTERACTIVITY

Social dynamics, collaboration and feedback drive new ideas and help us

progress,decide and learn. By Interactivity we mean features that stimulate

the accessibility and exchange of information and knowledge. Face to face

or distant, live or virtual, synchronously or asynchronously.

INTEGRATION

Properties that merge rooms, furniture, technology and facilitators into a

seamless, inspiring environment that makes it easy to access and exchange

information, collaborate and use technology to foster 21stcentury learning

skills.

LEARNING

SOLUTIONS

Digitizing workflows, an always on society, ubiquity of internet access

and productivity software, These are some of the many factors that

influence our daily occupations as learners, teachers, and workers. They

bring new requirements to the environments we are active in, and to

us as individuals and groups. We often lack, however, the right easy to

use tools, equipment and interfaces to work most effectively in these

new, blended analog and digital environments.

Our mission is to provide every learning environment in the world

with affordable, easy acces to inspiring ways of working by means of

integrated solutions that foster interaction.

SOFTWARE

SOLUTIONS

At i3-Technologies, we see software as the glue that brings hardware, content,

information and people together. From our point of view, information and content

work better when they can be visualised, shared, discussed and interacted with.Ease of use, low total cost of ownership and anytime, anywhere, any device access

are fundamental to the software solutions we develop - eliminating barriers that

stand in the way of a smooth learning process.

In short, our aim in developing i3-Technologies learning solutions is to allow you

to focus on the task at hand, not on how to manage your new piece of hard- or

software, where you stored that important file or how to share your screen with

your students...

i3-TECHNOLOGIES CREATED RESOURCESEvery i3-Technologies whiteboarding software comes with a library lled with a collection

of general and curriculum specic localized content resources. Rather than focus on and

quantity and ll the library with content you will never use, our local teams of educators took

great care of selecting only the appropriate materials. Select i3 software oers advanced

ltering and labeling options, so nding the specic content you need is a quick and easy

process. No more looking for a needle in a hay stack!

i3-TECHNOLOGIES LEARNING COMMUNITYTeachers are often the authors of great localized content, and dont need to be convinced

of the benets of sharing. i3-Technologies fosters content sharing for its platforms through

content repository that is available for all to use. Upon free registration, you immediately

gain access to the community. If you dont posess a software license, just register fori3LEARNHUB, the free web based whiteboarding software that allows you to view, edit and

create lesson plans without functional limits.

FEDERATED SEARCHWhy reinvent the wheel? Instead of bloating our software with large static library collections

of images, audio, video and interactive tools, we choose to develop a limited amount of

quality resources that are localized for your specic needs. Our team of specialized

educators keeps adding quality content and tools every day. When you need to nd lesscommon content, the SearchOnline function launches a search in several renowned content

providers repositories, straight from your familiar library environment.

PARTNERSWe are committed to giving our customers and content partners a platform that makes it

easy to distribute and use quality paid content resources. From a sinlge sign on option to full

content and tools integration, we engage with national publishers on your behalf.

The power of digital and interactive learning

resources is astonishing. Take your students on a

trip to the Sahara desert, let them relive the moon

landing, simulate chemical or physical experiments

and much more. Digital assets make it easier

for teachers to motivate their students, too. The

challenge is often to nd those resources that will

work well in your given situation. At i3 we adopted

EUNs LRE for Schools evaluation criteria for Travel

Well resources:

Trans-national topics

Language independence

Platform independent

No need for methodological support

Intuitive and easy to use

Interactivity with or without feedback in

a digital environment

DEVELOPMENTAND

COMMUNITY

Our experiences with interactive learning tools have taught us that, next to official

curriculum standard content, real teachers often create very relevant and engaging

educational resources. Others gain more from not having to reinvent the wheel and

still teach with top level relevant resources without sacrificing personal time.


23/32


We regulary bring educators

together in co-creation

sessions under guidance of our

certified trainers. After participating

in such a seminar, teachers tend to

form a powerful community that sharesbest practices, raises the bar for all, and lets our

best curriculum developers shine. After all, creating

resources is a great way to refine your skills. As you perfect

your

course materials, you also enhance your teaching.

i3-Technologies employs certified trainers to provide targeted

professional development.

In the end, everyone wins, especially students. And thats what its all about.

i3-TECHNOLOGIES EXPERTISE ON THE WEB

Studies have shown that people naturally gravitate to great ideas, passion and innovation.

Our 40 years of expertise in education and well trained and motivated collaborators will help

you define what kind of interactive learning environment will suit your needs. From planning

to implementation, training, development and raising awareness and buy-in in your organisation,

we can help. The content, resources, knowledge base and peer review opportunities offered by the i3-Technologies learning community form an important part of any successful implementation.

ONLINE TIPS AND TRICKS

Sometimes, waiting for a training, a reply from a peer or an expert or an opportunity to partcipipate in a community

seminar just isnt quick enough. For many self starters, it may also be more than is really needed. Our self-serve section of

teaching tips, ideas, product tricks, features and inspiration is accessible 24/7, free of charge and uses only the most popular

video sharing formats.

TRAINING

We develop our i3-Technologies learning solutions for and in conjunction with

educators and pay great attention to intuitivity and easy of use. As technology

enhanced education is relatively new to teachers in many countries, easy of use

alone is often not enough to ensure technology realises its full potential in education

and shows a satisfactory return on investment.

That is why we developed an extensive training program for our range of hardware,

software and content solutions. Our certified trainers guide you step by step. Learnhow to use our technology and the available content to explore digital pedagogy and

didactics. Discover how to create your own curriculum specific resources. Explore

additional technologies. Finally, complete the cycle and champion your peers on

their own path to transforming education.

Our belief in collaborative learning is reflected by the format of our training

workshops and the availabilty of custom, on-demand sessions addressing specific

queries.

SERVICEAND

SUPPORT

Studies have shown that insufficient availabilty of Interactive Whiteboards and other

classroom technology and issues with the reliability of the ICT equipment in a school

are considered the main inhibiting factors to their use by teachers and headmasters

alike. Among the other inhibiting factors, the highest ranking ones are a lack of interest

from teachers and most of all the lack of insight and understanding of the benefits

classroom technology can bring to teachers and students. i3-Technologies and its

authorised distributors and resellers have developed several services and support

measures which will help you overcome these issues.
