In today’s dynamic educational landscape, the imperative for innovative, impactful solutions is more pronounced than ever. Leading this transformative movement is the Reinvent the Classroom (RTC) initiative, a pioneering collaboration between JB Hi-Fi Education, HP, and Intel.
This initiative aims to reimagine how we support teachers and their digital skillset and enhance learning outcomes through a renewed focus on digital pedagogy and using simple data that empowers educators to master digital teaching methodologies.
JB Hi-Fi Education: championing enhanced educational outcomes
JB Hi-Fi Education, with over two decades of commitment to the education sector, stands at the forefront of this initiative, driven by the belief that “education deserves more”.
This ethos underscores JB Hi-Fi Education’s dedication to providing educational institutions with the technology and support needed to navigate and leverage technological advancements, enriching both teaching and learning experiences.
The Reinvent the Classroom Framework
Central to the RTC initiative is its outcomes-based digital transformation framework, designed to utilise AI in aiding school leadership teams in making strategic, data-informed decisions.
The initiative focuses on elevating digital pedagogical practices and creating contemporary learning spaces that adhere to a pedagogy-first principle.
Key components of the RTC framework include:
- The Readiness Assessment: This online survey is pivotal in capturing insights from the school community, assessing digital teaching and learning across four domains to provide quantified metrics on 16 data points. It plays a crucial role in identifying areas for improvement and quantifying the impact of educational initiatives.
- Room Design: RTC introduces modern classroom layouts that prioritise pedagogical considerations, incorporating developmental zones designed to facilitate direct interactions and support.
- Customised Professional Development: Tailored to a school’s needs, RTC’s professional development programs are designed to accelerate educational transformation, ranging from certification training to pedagogical training and coaching.
