Wearable Technology in Education

A NZ perspective...

We are in a good position in that most of the new technological innovations happen in the '

bigger 'countries and get trialled out there.

We adopt the ones that stand the trials.

So, we adopt and use the best :)

In NZ, wearable technology is most certainly not all pervasive, certainly not in the primary sector.

So, let us pick the ones that are relevant to us( our kids, our curriculum ) and try them out , reflect on

them before we go inventing any new one .

Which one would be the best to start with? Google EXPEDITION stands out as a clear winner for our

primary kids.
