Game changers

I was in Spain in early March to keynote the 9th International Conference on Technology, Education and Development (INTED 2015). The event, held in Madrid, is one I have previously written about on this blog. Over 600 people attended from more than 75 countries, and over several days, they explored a range of ideas around new approaches to education, new and emerging technologies and of course professional and personal development. It was a great event, and I remember wishing that I could have stayed for more than one day to join in with the entire conference. I was quite busy on the first and only day I attended, giving one of the two opening keynote addresses, before doing a book signing and then participating in a one hour panel discussion. After this I remember being whisked away by the conference organisers to sit under the lights in a make-shift studio somewhere in the bowels of the hotel for a television interview. The questions were well thought through. I was asked for example, what I thought would be the key game changers in education technology in the coming years, what the perfect school might look like, and what was the best experience in my entire school career. Below is the entire interview - I hope you enjoy it.
