Under its new brand, 1EdTech™ Consortium, the world’s leading non-profit collaborative in educational technology and digital learning announced today its commitment to accelerating a complementary set of educational leadership strategies that are essential to improving learning experiences and outcomes in K-12, higher education, and lifelong learning over the next decade.
The strategies are educational application and ecosystem trust, curriculum and instructional equity at scale, improving the capturing and sharing of achievement, and data-informed student success.
The 1EdTech community believes educators and learners deserve a trusted, innovation-ready, future-proof, connected digital ecosystem. As our members work together to help evolve education technology to fit the needs of all, we also need to ensure the digital tools we use are safe. Moving forward, our community is leading the application of evolving trust requirements for student data privacy and adding interoperability, accessibility, and community alerts to build trust across the edtech ecosystem.
The 1EdTech community is leading efforts to accelerate the adoption of digital curricula, learning tools, and next-generation learning platforms to enable instructional equity in educational institutions of all types and sizes. 1EdTech is currently forming an executive advisory council on curriculum and instructional equity for superintendents, presidents, provosts, and CEOs to help guide our work on enabling personalized learning strategies through seamless access to digital resources that align with educational standards. The goal is for educators to have a wide selection of high-quality digital products so they can tailor learning experiences for their local needs.
The 1EdTech community is also playing a pivotal role in developing verifiable micro-credentials and learner records that will improve capturing of learner achievement and connecting those achievements to opportunities. 1EdTech is participating in a new Credential Futures Coalition, a group of non-profit organizations working together to enable the next generation of collaboration between learners, education providers, and employers.
Finally, the 1EdTech community, led by some of the world’s top-ranked universities, has introduced a new “developer commons program” designed to help institutions and suppliers ensure that learners, faculty, and institutions can reap the benefits of potential insights from digital learning. These institutions are collaborating on defining and implementing “data-ready apps” that ensure reliable and timely access to data that fits within an institutional product ecosystem. Using data to give educators, advisors, and students the ability to make adjustments before it’s too late, we will improve student success, edtech products, and educational practice on an ongoing basis.
“The accelerated growth of 1EdTech to more than 750 member organizations—all leaders in creating the future of edtech—and thousands of certified products is a very encouraging sign that an open, innovative, and trusted ecosystem that lifts all learners is becoming a reality,” said Dr. Rob Abel, 1EdTech CEO. “We are so proud of the accomplishments of all our members as they benefit from their own strategies while creating the open ecosystem that benefits all stakeholders around the world.”
Education and technology leaders will highlight these strategies at the upcoming Learning Impact Conference in Nashville, June 13-16. Learn more about Learning Impact 2022.

在其新品牌 1EdTech™ Consortium 下，世界领先的教育技术和数字学习非营利合作组织今天宣布致力于加速一套互补的教育领导战略，这些战略对于改善 K-12 的学习体验和成果至关重要，更高未来十年的教育和终身学习。
这些策略是教育应用和生态系统信任、大规模的课程和教学公平、改进成果的获取和共享，以及基于数据的学生成功。
1EdTech 社区认为，教育工作者和学习者应该得到一个值得信赖、创新就绪、面向未来的互联数字生态系统。当我们的成员共同努力帮助发展教育技术以满足所有人的需求时，我们还需要确保我们使用的数字工具是安全的。展望未来，我们的社区正在引领对学生数据隐私不断发展的信任要求的应用，并增加互操作性、可访问性和社区警报，以在整个教育科技生态系统中建立信任。
1EdTech 社区正在努力加快采用数字课程、学习工具和下一代学习平台，以实现各种类型和规模的教育机构的教学公平。1EdTech 目前正在为学监、校长、教务长和首席执行官组建一个关于课程和教学公平的执行咨询委员会，以帮助指导我们通过无缝访问符合教育标准的数字资源来实现个性化学习策略的工作。目标是让教育工作者拥有广泛的高质量数字产品选择，以便他们可以根据当地需求定制学习体验。
1EdTech 社区还在开发可验证的微证书和学习者记录方面发挥着关键作用，这些证书和学习者记录将改进对学习者成就的捕捉并将这些成就与机会联系起来。1EdTech 正在参与一个新的 Credential Futures Coalition，该联盟由一群非营利组织共同努力，以实现学习者、教育提供者和雇主之间的下一代协作。
最后，由一些世界一流大学领导的 1EdTech 社区推出了一项新的“开发者共享计划”，旨在帮助机构和供应商确保学习者、教师和机构能够从数字学习的潜在见解中获益. 这些机构正在合作定义和实施“数据就绪应用程序”，以确保可靠和及时地访问适合机构产品生态系统的数据。使用数据让教育工作者、顾问和学生能够在为时已晚之前做出调整，我们将持续改进学生的成功、教育技术产品和教育实践。
“1EdTech 的加速成长为 750 多个成员组织——所有这些都是创造教育科技未来的领导者——以及数以千计的认证产品，这是一个非常令人鼓舞的迹象，表明一个开放、创新和值得信赖的生态系统正在成为现实，提升所有学习者， ”1EdTech 首席执行官 Rob Abel 博士说。“我们为所有成员的成就感到自豪，因为他们从自己的战略中受益，同时创建了有利于全球所有利益相关者的开放生态系统。”
教育和技术领导者将在即将于 6 月 13 日至 16 日在纳什维尔举行的学习影响会议上强调这些战略。了解有关2022 年学习影响力的更多信息。
