<div class="wpb_text_column wpb_content_element"><div class="wpb_wrapper"><p><b>Patrick Brothers, Founder, HolonIQ (moderator)</b></p>
<p><b>Richard Culatta, CEO, International Society for Technology in Education</b></p>
<p><b>Kamran Elahian, Chairman and Founder, Global Innovation Catalyst</b></p>
<p><b>Elliott Masie, Chairman, The Learning Consortium</b></p>
<p><span>The panel moderated by Patrick Brothers, Founder, HolonIQ takes a deep dive into education technology from a global perspective and investigates the demand, trends, and opportunities.</span></p>
<p><span>Brothers sets the scene by pushing the audience to expand the definition of education technology as we currently see it – from traditional models to new ways of thinking about school.</span></p>
<p><span>“Education technology is new ways of finding knowledge, content, and access to resources as learners. It is about helping schools, universities and institutions be more efficient and reach their students and parents more effectively.</span></p>
<p><span>A lot of the technology is enabling and supporting the globalization of education today – whether that’s language learning or accessing education across different countries and different regions of the world.”</span></p>
<p><span>He shares that education is a $6T business but only $200B is invested in education technology. And $10 billion is invested into ed tech startups and organizations.</span></p>
<p><span>“The three really big powerhouses are China, India, and the US, who are leading global investment around the world.”</span></p>
<p><span>—-</span></p>
<p><span>Richard Culatta, CEO of International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE) begins with stating the use of technology to close long standing equity gaps, personalize learning and empower students to use technology to design the learning themselves.</span></p>
<p><span>He speaks about the “positive” disruption that COVID-19 has brought to the ed tech industry. “I hate that it took a pandemic for that to happen, but we are actually in a place that is very exciting because we have finally had the chance to overcome some of these basic infrastructure issues.”</span></p>
<p><span>Culatta highlights two areas that need solutions. First, technology that supports authentic assessment. Second, tools that help teachers manage a more personalized learning experience.</span></p>
<p><span>He adds that the future of ed tech needs to blur the lines between education technology and learning science.</span></p>
<p><span>“It’s no longer okay to have a company that’s building ed tech if you don’t have somebody who is a learning science researcher, or somebody to advise on it.”</span></p>
<p><span>—-</span></p>
<p><span>Our next panelist, Elliott Masie, Chairman of The Learning Consortium speaks of his experience in e-learning in the context of work.</span></p>
<p><span>“Don’t try to replicate school!”, he begins to state.</span></p>
<p><span>“The number one thing that we hear from employees is that they don’t care about going back to school. What they want is to get the skill to do today and tomorrow’s job. They want to figure out how to do something quickly and rapidly.” </span></p>
<p><span>To get great learning experience, he iterates that we have to do more behavioral design. He adds that technology should not build addictive but design “exploratory, creative and collaborative behavior:.</span></p>
<p><span>Elliott also emphasizes the need for a shift from selling to understanding the market. “It’s a great investment moment, but don’t think it’s about selling learning because a very large percentage of EdTech companies go bankrupt because they haven’t mapped their idea to really where the market is going to be.” </span></p>
<p><span>He finishes his talk by saying, “We, together as individuals, schools, the government, communities and religions have to build an ecosystem and an ecology around learning.”</span></p>
<p><span>—-</span></p>
<p><span>Kamran Elahian, Chairman and Founder of Global Innovation Catalyst, who has vast experience in innovation and entrepreneurship, sheds light on how education and technology are rapidly changing in today’s time.</span></p>
<p><span>Elahian says “we are in a very interesting inflection point in evolution of our species that has a profound impact on the integration of technology as a leverage for education and the future of the world.”</span></p>
<p><span>He points out that broadband ushers the innovation economy. “Patents, IP, a lot of the knowledge, the way we value that has lost its value because the innovation economy is about disruption, implementation and execution.”</span></p>
<p><span>Elahian pinpoints that the future of education is different because it is all about algorithmic content now. ”Today there are gazillion pieces of knowledge and information available to us. You don’t need a teacher to come and teach you something, but instead a coach or a mentor who can help you find your way. “</span></p>
<p><span>He concludes by saying that in the innovation economy, it’s the youth that have the ability, the upper hand. “I say it’s good business, anybody who understands innovation economy, to invest in education and experiential learning of youth, especially women.”</span></p>
<p><span>—-</span></p>
<p><span>Before concluding the panel, the three experts underscore the importance of “adding failure” in the learning process.</span></p>
<p><span>“We have incentivized the wrong skill. We’ve incentivized a one-shot, whereas the skill that you actually need to be successful in a highly-connected virtual world is the skill of trying again, and again, and again, with new and different collaborators until you get it right,” says Culatta.</span></p>
<p><span>Elahian adds that “technology allows you to go and take a chance, try something new, be creative and make mistakes … in a safe place by simulation”.</span></p>
<p><span>Masie points out the need to create a home learning environment. He offers his piece of advice to parents, “let’s get rid of tiger moms and dads.”</span></p>

The index measuring the education digitalization has grown about threefold in the past five years. And most of the developments are taking place in the ‘off-school’ edtech sector.</span></p>
<p><span>Dr Li explains that we can break the edtech market into the ed and the tech parts. </span></p>
<p><span>“Startups often provide innovative digitized education content to be consumed in schools and off-schools. And there are bigger companies providing the technology solutions to the content providers.”</span></p>
<p><span> </span></p>
<p><span>—-</span></p>
<p><span>Dr Simon Leung, Vice Chairman, NetDragon Websoft Holdings Ltd. gives us a snapshot of the future of learning and the opportunities in the China market.</span></p>
<p><span>“Our company is very excited about technology because it can help address the education equality or inequality issue,” he says. The other thing is through big data and AI, we can learn at our own pace with personalised curriculum. The trend is towards blended learning and the Chinese government is spending a lot of money to provide the infrastructure support. </span></p>
<p><span>He thinks there are tremendous opportunities for people coming in from the outside, even in the tier three, four, five cities. The people out in remote areas have increased spending power and are also a lot more knowledgeable about and will have access to technology especially with 5G. He pinpoints that the key is to localize the offering for China. </span></p>
<p><span>“It’s important to segment the China market and map it out, because each one requires a different strategy. And then you convince the right stakeholders to embrace the right kind of technology.”</span></p>
<p><span>Dr Leung points out that one of the few areas that is encouraged for foreign players to come in is vocational education. Increasingly Chinese parents also want their children to learn soft skills and additional languages.</span></p>
<p><span>Whilst incremental change is one direction, he underscores the opportunity to change fundamentally the way we learn, by bringing quality education to more people.</span></p>
<p><span>==============================</span></p>
<p><span>Relena Sei (CEO of JumpStart Media) facilitated this panel with two edtech specialist VCs:</span></p>
<ul>
<li><span>Matt Greenfield, Managing Partner, Rethink Education</span></li>
<li><span>Bill Ning, Founding Partner, Blue Elephant Capital</span></li>
</ul>
<p><b>Nature of Edtech Investment:<span> </span></b><span>Greenfield and Ning highlights the importance of government regulations in the ed tech arena. Ning points out that good education companies are labour intensive businesses and therefore growth would be slower than a typical tech venture. Investors have to be more patient. Both speakers emphasize that founders of edtech businesses should have strong vision and values. Matt reckons that edtech investors have to start with what their values are. Rethink Education only invests in edtech ventures that could make a difference and narrow the gap between the vulnerable and the privileged. They have elaborate requirements and rubrics on the beneficiaries, the benefits and the theory of change.</span></p>
<p><b>Strategy for Novice:<span> </span></b><span>For investors with no prior experience, Greenfield suggests that they piggyback on the experienced ones. It is essential to understand the customer needs to get the product-market-fit. Successful startups are often those with a social mission working on a peripheral innovation to solve a problem that no one is working on. The social mission could also help attract talents. </span></p>
<p><b>Co-investment Consideration:<span> </span></b><span>Ning remarks that great content, talent and time are in short supply. They look for co-investment partners that could bring good content, resources and connections to entrepreneurs. Rethink Education likes to work with family offices and foundations that have a different time horizon. They have the legacy consideration and will not panic easily if something goes wrong. Whilst the return takes longer to realise, the loss ratio is also lower. For Rethink Education, only one out of 20 investments flopped.</span></p>
<p><b>China Market:<span> </span></b><span>Ning shares the phenomenal growth of edtech in the Chinese Mainland market. Education is an RMB $7 trillion business, at 6-7% of China’s GDP. Families are willing to spend a lot on after school tutoring. There is also a great deal of money flowing into edtech with 4-5 unicorns, attracting talents (engineers, designers and educators) into the sector. Whilst the current focus is on K12 , he envisages that the market would shift from K12 to Y12, including universities, vocational training and distance learning. The digital content market will be big, fueled by the development of AR and VR.</span></p>
<p><b>Role of Hong Kong:<span> </span></b><span>Ning believes Hong Kong and other Greater Bay Area cities are well placed to develop education technology in the next 10 years. The region has an abundant supply of talents, the hardware/manufacturing supply chain and strong government support to education. Hong Kong could play an important role with an international talent pool and a good education system. There is a lot that the rest of the GBA can learn from Hong Kong. Greenfield reckons that Hong Kong could play the role of “translating’ languages, culture and legal systems. There is also abundant capital in Hong Kong that could be recycled from successful entrepreneurs to ‘missionary’ ventures. </span></p>
<p><span> </span></p>
<p><span>—–</span></p>
<p><span> </span></p>
<p><span>Julian Fisher, Co-Chair, Education Forum at British Chamber of Commerce (Beijing) shares his experience of helping small UK businesses and startups enter the China market.</span></p>
<p><span>He begins by introducing the market opportunities for foreign players. “Early years, zero to three is a huge space. Teacher training is probably the biggest thing that we hear on a daily basis. Homework has a lot of local players but it’s still an area of opportunity. And then also mental health.”</span></p>
<p><span>“But a broader trend is that of research-backed ed tech … because parents, institutions, and local governments, all want results – and to see that this is education based on research.”</span></p>
<p><span>Fisher stresses that foreign companies have to offer added value and like what Dr Leung says, it has to be a blended experience with both online and offline learning. He puts forward some key questions that startups should be able to answer when entering China:</span></p>
<ol>
<li><span>Who’s your competition? </span></li>
<li><span>What is their pricing? </span></li>
<li><span>What is your actual market?</span></li>
<li><span>How many schools can you sell to?</span></li>
<li><span>Do you understand the procurement processes? </span></li>
<li><span>What resources are you going to set aside?</span></li>
</ol>
<p><span>“I worked with a lot of SMEs. They often want to come to China, spend no money and make huge amounts of money. And the truth is, that’s never going to work.”</span></p>
<p><span>He echoes the importance of getting a local partner and localising the offering. “You’ve got to be super adaptable to the Chinese market … you’d need to get a foothold working with a school group or working with one university testing, iterating, getting a feedback loop.”</span></p>
<p><span>He highlights the need for a shift in mindset. “You’re not just changing the way that things are taught, but also the teaching approach and eventually changing pedagogy.” </span></p>
<p><span>Dr Li concludes by saying that “good quality content is in short supply in China. Hong Kong has a lot of good contents to offer because of the concentration of good schools and universities, which is enviable for most of the cities in China.”</span></p>

</div>
</div>
<div class=""><p><span>A warm welcome to everyone. These days, I often find myself fumbling for the right words when I greet a diverse group of webinar participants like yourselves coming from different time zones. The simple ‘Good mornings’ or ‘Good afternoons’ just don’t work anymore for obvious reasons. The timing of the gathering may be a bit uncivilised for some of you, but we are delighted that you can join us, and we are grateful that technology has brought us together. First of all, a big thank you to Cyberport, our co-creator, the many local and international partners and the distinguished speakers of our Summit today.</span></p>
<p><span>The Edventures Global Business Acceleration Program was actually conceived over two years ago at the founding of Esperanza. Little did we know at the time that an unknown virus would trigger in a matter of weeks a revolution that would change everything we have taken for granted, especially in the way we teach and learn all over the world. This new normal has become an integrated part of our daily living in the 21st Century. </span></p>
<p><span>We have inherited an education system that has remained largely unchanged since the 19th Century. The Brookings Institution predicted in a recent study that if the education sector were to stay on its current trajectory, in a decade’s time, that is, by 2030, half of our young population would lack the basic skills needed to thrive in the 21st Century.</span><span> </span><span>To alter this dire destiny, we must make rapid, non-linear progress, what Brookings calls leapfrogging, with the aid of technology acting as catalyst and change agent. </span></p>
<p><span>Learning is most effective when it is enjoyable for all concerned. Technology can make learning fun for learners using interesting and effective methods and materials. Technology can also help unburden teachers from administrative minutiae leaving them time to attend to individual students and prepare relevant instructional materials and supplements.</span></p>
<p><span>Through the use of AI and data analytics, technology can help formulate individualised education plans, track progress to suit the needs of students learning at different paces and evaluate the impact of learning on a continuous basis. As we seek to nurture a new generation of global citizens, technology can also enable students to collaborate and learn with peers in different parts of the world in real time. </span></p>
<p><span>Technology can also assist students with physical or developmental disabilities to learn in more meaningful and effective ways. While the concern about digital divide is real and has to be tackled as a matter of priority, there is no denying that technology can make quality learning more accessible to remote or otherwise difficult-to-reach students with little economic means. </span></p>
<p><span>There is a common perception that edtech is used primarily to develop digital literacy. Not so. According to the same Brookings study, literacy, numeracy and 21st Century skills are the top three areas that edtech innovations can address. We should also be mindful that edtech applications should not be just about the replication of traditional classroom instructions on digital platforms. We should also avoid relying on technology as an extra layer of reinforcement, for example, in the form of additional online after school classes, duplicating efforts in the physical world and aggravating further the problems of existing systems.</span></p>
<p><span>Successful edtech innovations can modify and augment the learning experience from a student-centred perspective. Edtech applications can redefine what, how, when, where and with whom we should learn. This demands a fundamental change in the mindsets of educators, parents and the community at large. It also requires effective collaboration among a complex and interconnected web of stakeholders outside the classroom, from policy-makers, education technology providers, NGOs to funders, investors and the business community. The Brookings study pointed out that 46% of edtech innovations have been implemented by NGOs, with the private sector as the second largest at 40%, while governments have contributed only 11%.</span></p>
<p><span>The Edventures Global Business Acceleration Program is part of Esperanza’s Reimagine Education Initiative that was launched last year. Our startup NGO advocates new ways to live, learn and work in the 21st Century and channels community resources to support change makers from Hong Kong and around the world. </span><span>We believe that we can learn from and collaborate with one another in developing effective solutions with global significance. </span></p>
<p><span>With this objective in mind, Esperanza initiated, together with Cyberport and a wide array of partners, the inaugural Edventures GBA Fellowship. The program aims to identify fast growing edtech ventures, connect them with like-minded people and organisations to help them realise their global ambitions. </span></p>
<p><span>In a few hours’ time, the ten finalists of the Fellowship will present their work and look for partnership opportunities. They are also exhibiting at a virtual expo until 22 November. You may wish to visit them after their pitches to understand more about their work and meet with them to discuss how you may work together. </span></p>
<p><span>Our expert speakers will share shortly their insights on the edtech development trends globally and in China, the largest and fastest growing edtech market in the world today. The acronym “GBA” also stands for the </span><i><span>Greater Bay Area, </span></i><span>the region that comprises the two Special Administrative Regions of Hong Kong and Macao, and nine cities in the Guangdong Province of China.</span><span> </span></p>
<p><span>The GBA has</span><span> a population of over 70 million people and a GDP of USD1.5 trillion, which is equivalent to the world’s 11th largest economy, somewhere between Russia and Canada. This region has the largest port and airport groups in the world, and the commercial entities operating in this area finance, manufacture and transport more products to all corners of the earth than any other place. For those of you who are interested to learn about the potential of the GBA as an edtech innovation hub, do join us later in the Summit for the release of the GBA edtech market study conducted by Supercharger Ventures.</span></p>
<p><span>Ladies and gentlemen, renowned educator John Dewey said that </span><span>“If we teach today as we taught yesterday, we rob our children of tomorrow”</span><span>. </span></p>
<p><span>Education is, indeed, too important a subject to be left only to education professionals. It is a matter for all of us. Together we can make the necessary changes to meet the challenges of the 21st Century for ourselves and our future generations. This Summit brings together a microcosm of our society with edtech experts, educators, parents, startups, investors, talent development and other business professionals. So, let us join forces now to reimagine the future for our children.</span></p>
<p><span>Thank you.</span></p>

<p><strong>November 2020</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p>COVID-19, for all its devastation and havoc wreaked, is a brutal and much needed wake-up call. It is a wake-up call that has revealed, very prominently, the limitations of our traditional brick-and-mortar modus operandi. It is also a wake-up call that has inevitably incited a newfound reliance on technology-driven digital and online solutions—and simultaneously exposed our lack of preparation in leveraging their potential.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>That the education sector has been especially hard hit is well recognized. At the pandemic’s peak in April, <a href="https://en.unesco.org/covid19/educationresponse">91% of the student population worldwide</a>—almost 1.6 billion students—experienced the closing of their schools. While the wake-up call most apparently illuminates the current educational challenges engendered by COVID-19, it signals and signifies the gravity of a long-standing learning crisis that predates the pandemic. Projections by the Education Commission already revealed the concerning reality that <a href="https://educationcommission.org/press-releases/delivering-education-800-million-left-children-now-biggest-long-term-economic-social-potentially-security-challenge-times/">825 million students</a> in low- and middle-income countries would not be on course to gaining basic secondary-level skills necessary for the labor market. The advent of the Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR) adds a further dimension of urgency with <a href="https://reports.weforum.org/future-of-jobs-2016/chapter-1-the-future-of-jobs-and-skills/#view/fn-1">65% of current primary school students</a> expected to have jobs that do not yet even exist today.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>As the first act of the Fourth Industrial Revolution commences, it is necessitating a fundamental shift in what we learn and how we teach. Yet, if the COVID-19 response is any indication of our preparedness in adapting to the rapidly advancing 4IR landscape, prospects are grim. Evidenced by the often haphazard and disarrayed infusion of technology in remote learning schemes, a copy-paste type approach will neither suffice nor succeed; the offline content cannot simply be re-uploaded online. Rather, there is a need to meaningfully reconfigure and realign anew to the 4IR approach of acquiring, processing, and constructing information. Obfuscating the boundaries of the <a href="https://www.weforum.org/about/the-fourth-industrial-revolution-by-klaus-schwab/">physical and digital, and even the biological</a>, 4IR and the skills it demands are profoundly more complex, more creative, and more collaborative. Education must, therefore, also follow suit.</p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>High Touch High Tech (HTHT)</strong></p>
<p>Embodying these elements—conceptually, operationally, and relationally—is the High Touch High Tech (HTHT) learning approach. Like its name suggests, this approach is comprised of two distinct components and aims. <em>High Tech</em> refers to the advanced technology, and an adaptive learning technology that harnesses the power of artificial intelligence (AI), in particular. It boasts a diagnostic feature that identifies prior knowledge, and an adaptive facility that tailors instruction to diverse learning levels and needs—allowing students to be stimulated and nurtured as they progress at their own pace. Directly complementing the <em>High Tech</em> component is the equally critical <em>High Touch</em> element provided by teachers. With the inclusion of adaptive learning technology, teachers are afforded the capacity to supply more personalized guidance through software-informed data. Teachers are also granted more time to supervise active, interactive, and collaborative learning experiences, such as project-based learning, that foster higher-order and soft skills. Recognizing the importance of human touch and connection, mentoring that emphasizes socio-emotional development also constitutes a key aspect of the comprehensive <em>High Touch</em> learning schemes.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Spearheading this approach is the <a href="https://educationcommission.org/learning-transformation/">Education Commission</a> and its recently established Asia hub, <a href="http://educommissionasia.org/about-us-vision/?lang=en">Education Commission Asia (ECA)</a> based in Seoul, Korea. In the fall of 2019, the Education Commission, with support from the UK’s Department for International Development, the Vietnamese Ministry of Education and Training, and Arizona State University, launched the first HTHT prototype project in Vietnam. Implemented across a seventh grade math curriculum, the HTHT approach demonstrated a positive impact of <a href="https://educationcommission.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/2020-EC-Country-Report-Vietnam-ENG.pdf">0.436 standard deviations</a>—equivalent to two years of learning. Encouraged by these promising results, preparations are in development to conduct a feasibility study ahead of a scale-up to 40 schools throughout the country. With the primary mission of furthering HTHT’s reach, ECA has also made efforts to build a robust HTHT portfolio since its inception last year. Globally, projects are underway in Uruguay, where the HTHT approach will be implemented for math and computational thinking, in partnership with Plan Ceibal, and Indonesia, on course to begin next year. Progress has also been made on the domestic front: the HTHT University Consortium (which now includes 16 member institutions) provides support to Korean universities incorporating the HTHT approach in their curricula and the HTHT K-12 Consortium targets low-income students across multiple cities, children of North Korean defectors, and multi-ethnic Korean youth.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Even with the initial favorable results of the HTHT approach, however, its scalability holds the keys to its ultimate impact. HTHT must show promise not only as an approach that is <em>adaptive</em> to individual students, but as one that is ultimately <em>adaptable</em> to a variety of contexts. Without doubt, the most apparent and ubiquitous bottleneck in scaling HTHT is the infrastructural diversity in accessibility to networks and devices—and the accompanying variations in digital literacy. Unhindered by offline limitations, technology—and the digital devices, digital content, and online platforms it encompasses—inherently boasts the potential to enhance connections and foster exchange in learning. Yet, our evident lack of readiness in meeting the challenges of the current pandemic, and the greater 4IR era, has resulted in a failure to not only optimally capitalize on this potential but to prevent an exacerbation of the digital divide—further inhibiting learning for many students. With <a href="https://teachertaskforce.org/news/covid-19-highlights-digital-divide-distance-learning">43% of all students worldwide</a> (about 706 million) lacking home internet access and an <a href="https://teachertaskforce.org/news/covid-19-highlights-digital-divide-distance-learning">even greater proportion</a> (about 826 million) with no household computer to use, technology-dependent remote learning schemes are proving more divisive than inclusive.</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>“HTHT for All”</strong></p>
<p>Amid the chaos of COVID-19, education has been presented with an unprecedented opportunity to reorient its focus in light of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, and redefine its scope to impact far more students than it does now. It is an opportunity, and simultaneously, a responsibility, that demands the attention and the proactive efforts of the global community. Heeding this call, the Education Commission and Education Commission Asia have launched a global initiative with the vision of sharing “HTHT for All.”</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Just as the prospects of 4IR rest on our capacity to <a href="https://www.weforum.org/about/the-fourth-industrial-revolution-by-klaus-schwab/">collaborate effectively across sectors and disciplines</a>, so too will the “HTHT for All” initiative be determined by its success as a multi-sectoral and multidisciplinary pursuit. The prolonged devastation of the pandemic and its relentless penetration of all industries has also reaffirmed that no sector has been spared—and a collaboration across them is imperative in rebuilding and building anew. Channeling the momentum garnered from the crisis, this initiative, therefore, invites and urges relevant actors from all segments of the ecosystem to forge a synergistic alliance so that “HTHT for All”—true to its name and mission—can be realized for all students.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Integral in this collaborative endeavor are diverse actors fulfilling unique and complementary roles: educators sharing the content knowledge; government officials across various ministries advancing policy and securing funding; edtech innovators supplying the technology; network providers and industry partners constructing the infrastructural foundation; and non-governmental coalitions generating awareness and advocacy. Notably, even within a robust and supportive ecosystem, a passive coalescing of factors will not suffice; leaders and pioneers must make conscientious strides to forge partnerships and consensus.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Within the policy arena, a reliable system of cross-ministerial communication must be in place to ensure an overarching vision supported by durable funding streams, and proper oversight without duplication of efforts. Public-private partnerships between edtech providers and schools also comprise an essential feature of the ecosystem: the former must cooperate to distribute the technological hard- and software at subsidized rates, as the latter functions as a testing ground or testbed for the technology. Moreover, bolstering the legal framework to enhance the availability, accessibility, and applicability of data would serve to benefit researchers, instructors, and edtech providers alike. In the case of Korea, for instance, education data constitutes but a mere <a href="https://www.data.go.kr/">5% of the total public database</a>—only 9% of which is standardized and suitable for further analysis. It is only when these foundational elements take hold that an effective quadripartite collaboration across the government, academia, edtech industry, and NGOs will emerge—propelling the innovation, investment, and research necessary for an effective and equitable expansion of HTHT.</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>“HTHT for All” Global Consortium</strong></p>
<p>For the vision conceived to become a vision actualized, the pursuit of “HTHT for All” must be advanced strategically, swiftly, and with great intentionality. Against the reality of competing interests and priorities, however, the ecosystem—and the actors that comprise it—will naturally remain scattered in their disparate domains unless otherwise prompted. To this end, the Education Commission and Education Commission Asia have joined forces to establish a multisided “HTHT for All” Global Consortium to anchor and unify the ecosystem in scaling the HTHT approach—and addressing the existing bottlenecks that prevent its proliferation. Inspired in large part by the success of the ECA-led University and K-12 Consortia in Korea, the Global Consortium stands to benefit from further leveraging the lessons emerging from the experiences of the two consortia.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Despite its relative nascency, ECA’s HTHT University Consortium has revealed that, with proper facilitation, scalability of the HTHT approach is indeed achievable. Without doubt, the rapid expansion of the Consortium can be attributed to the sudden onset of the pandemic—leaving cities, universities, and schools desperate and eager to embrace new ways of teaching and learning. The progress made is noteworthy, nevertheless. Highlighting the advantage of an evident network effect, or economies of scale, the Consortium has grown to enjoy the participation of 16 universities, eight edtech companies, five cities, four schools, and two foundations in a span of less than 10 months following its launch. Beginning with just six universities and one vendor, the Consortium’s incorporation of three new global vendors, shortly thereafter, resulted in garnering the interest of more institutions—some of which requested for adaptive learning platforms in Korean. The introduction of four domestic vendors and the increased courseware options in Korean then further heightened the appeal for prospective institutions, leading the Consortium to extend its membership to 10 additional universities and colleges.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The experience of the HTHT K-12 Consortium also provides a valuable perspective in the establishment of the proposed Global Consortium. Following the lead of its higher education counterparts, the K-12 Consortium’s first venture began in April of 2020 with the Seocho district of Seoul—part of the affluent Gangnam area yet replete with many students in disadvantaged and vulnerable contexts, particularly those low-income. Realizing the merit of personalized and adaptive modes of learning especially for these students, community youth centers in the district were keen to integrate the HTHT approach utilizing a Korean adaptive learning platform into their mentoring programs. In expanding the K-12 Consortium to other cities and regions, however, it quickly became evident that the participation of more and varied actors would be imperative. In contrast to universities with the capacity to pay access and usage fees, programs serving vulnerable or disadvantaged youth often rely on financial support from external organizations; hiring competent and trained personnel is also a prevailing challenge. As the convener and facilitator of the Consortium, ECA, therefore, initiated relationships with foundations and NGOs to secure funding, as well as with colleges to supply student mentors for these programs. Alongside enlarging its geographic presence, the K-12 Consortium has actively pursued partnerships with schools and centers for children of North Korean defectors and multi-ethnic Korean youth so as to extend its reach to more diverse populations. A promising partnership with a middle and high school for children of North Korean defectors has been particularly instructive in functioning as a model case for other nontraditional, alternative schools seeking to join the Consortium.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Notwithstanding HTHT’s relative newcomer status on the block of learning modalities, its diffusion has been remarkably proactive and purposeful. Insights from Arizona State University’s experience in implementing adaptive learning approaches have contributed to shaping the Vietnam prototype; the lessons learned from the Vietnam prototype, then, in turn, have motivated and catalyzed the operations of both the University and K-12 Consortia in Korea. Against this backdrop, the Education Commission and Education Commission Asia’s proposed “HTHT for All” Global Consortium is uniquely situated to even further accelerate the testing of the HTHT approach in more varied contexts and subsequently strengthen the robustness of its evidence base. Through the preceding examples, the lesson most prominently brought to the fore is that of the need for all the relevant actors of the HTHT ecosystem (e.g., schools, universities, vendors, NGOs, foundations) to be appropriately represented in the Consortium. Notably, the Global Consortium’s added capacity to invite the participation of multilateral development banks and organizations, as well as global companies in network and energy, will serve to reinforce and galvanize the ecosystem in overcoming the digital divide to deliver HTHT to all.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>--------------</p>
<p> </p>
<p>“HTHT for All” is a call to action. It is a call to action for a collective mobilization of efforts, talents, and funds from all facets of the ecosystem. At the same time, it is a response—and a responsibility—to redress the global community’s inaction, as yet, to produce a concerted plan and way forward that will adequately equip students far beyond the pandemic.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>No longer can we afford to dismiss the learning crisis as simply an educational issue; no longer can we continue to address it as a purely educational endeavor. Given the known effects of education on individual and societal outcomes, the learning crisis—albeit most pressing and prominent as an educational issue today—will eventually resurface as a workforce issue, and ultimately, as an enduring challenge that impairs the overall economy. It is only a matter of time.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The wake-up call may be loud and commanding now, but it will not resound forever. The aftermath of failing to recognize it, however, will persist into the decades ahead—long after COVID-19 has abated. The anticipation of a return to normalcy cannot justify our present neglect and complacency. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>While the attention to the learning crisis is long overdue, the opportunity is now. How—and how thoughtfully—we harness it will determine the strength and sustainability of its impact. As a global initiative that addresses the wake-up call—and the corresponding opportunity, “HTHT for All,” strives to be as inclusive as it is innovative—for true impact is realized only when the innovation is accessible and enjoyed by more than a privileged few.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Today, “HTHT for All” is an initial call to action, but through our collective vision, drive, and resolution, it can inspire a transformation of learning altogether for students and societies today, tomorrow, and for generations to come.</p>
