Wait… There’s a Digital Learning Day? Yes, there is!

Digital Learning Day was established primarily to encourage educators to embrace learning technology to be brought into the school system.  The organisers facilitated events to showcase success stories of doing just that, to increase awareness and share best practices.  It’s a worthwhile effort as education systems around the world require a revamp.

On Digital Learning Day, we embrace how technology brings learning to greater heights of efficiency and scalability, like never before. We recognise how with technology, learning is transformed: smarter, faster, better.
