Afshar (2001) supported the view that “international pedagogical experiences provide participants with an opportunity to acquire knowledge through action across a broad range of institutional and cultural contexts; and is invaluable to the development of a reflective planning practitioner”.

Following this view, it is crucial to recognise that learning does not just happen within a classroom, but that it is a process that can happen anytime and anywhere. With EdTech solutions, it is now easier than ever to break down classroom barriers and allow greater accessibility to education. Learners are able to learn on-the-go, with or without a facilitator, and connect to global learning opportunities that were previously unheard of.

To showcase this, we will highlight a case study of how one institution, using EdTech solutions, achieved substantial learning outcomes by relating academic content to real world context during school excursions. We will then continue to explore various other ways in which these same solutions can be used to provide even greater freedom and flexibility for both learners and educators alike in the process of learning and teaching.

學習不應受場地限制；學生應該能夠隨時隨地獲取知識。近年，形形色色的教育科技配套，成功讓教師和學生打破學與教的地域限制，現在，不論有沒有老師從旁協助，學生均能夠隨時隨地學習，遙距學習亦因而普及起來。 於本節研討會，講者將會分享一個案例，探討學校在户外教學過程中，如何能夠透過教育科技配套，將知識與真實生活結合，從而達至不同的教學目標。講者亦會進一步介紹不同的教育科技配套如何能夠在學與教的過程中，為教師和學生提供更大的自由度和彈性。
