2020 has shown us that as our society changes with technological advances, we must also make sure that our education system develops alongside it. Educational expert Steve Sherman talks about how schools must learn to use online education in order to improve student experiences and raise the next generation. Recorded on the 26th of July. Steve is the Chief Imagination Officer of an Educational NGO in South Africa called Living Maths, founded in 1995. He teaches approximately 4500 students weekly in schools around Cape Town, as well as the rest of the world. He is passionate about sharing knowledge and empowering young people. He has taught in over 200 different classrooms around the world using the internet. He knows his way around EDtech as he regularly facilitates workshops for teachers, and he also conducts online interviews with prominent international guests. Steve is a TEDx speaker, Kahoot Ambassador, Microsoft Innovative Educator Expert and one of only 2 Skype Master Teachers in South Africa. He is a multi-award purchasing educator and he feels that it is his destiny to spread the joy of STEM, Edtech, numbers and creative thinking to anyone who is willing to listen, and even to those who are not! People often dream of meeting great leaders. Steve just smiles because he teaches them!
