Sharing Updates from the Global EdTech Testbed/Trialling Network (GETN)

University College London Professor and Co-Founder of Global EdTech Testbed/Trialling Network (GETN) - Alison Clark-Wilson - shared updates from the recent GETN virtual meet-up event.

The GETN community all share a common interest in how to design, implement and evaluate more systemic Edtech Testbed (or “Trialling” in the US) approaches. These systemic Testbeds enable a diversity of EdTech to generate evidence of their product’s impacts in collaboration with teachers, learners (and supported by researchers). 

Members of the network shared ongoing projects, which included:

The community updates were followed by break-out groups at which the emerging GETN Logic Model was discussed and critiqued. This raised a host of questions about GETN’s ultimate impact goals - and how GETN seeks to serve the global community by sharing knowledge, expertise and resources that support the design of many, many systemic Edtech Testbeds that serve the needs of a diversity of Edtechs, learners, educational and pedagogic innovations, research approaches and funding constraints. 

If this very niche topic is of interest to you, the first step to getting involved in GETN is to take the GETN survey, which helps us to further global Edtech Testbed research and connect with individuals and organisations who are actively developing a diversity of much-needed sustainable and systemic approaches.
