Irina Matthews
Learning Services Coordinator, GÉANT, The Netherlands
Last 14 years have been one continuous journey in the world of education, training, teachers’ professional development, technology enhanced learning and corporate learning. The professional environments of private, government-funded, work-based, community learning and lately multicultural technology driven EU project have provided the backdrop to the most exciting professional and personal journey.
Passion for the teaching, interest in the transformational impact of technology on pedagogy and life overall have remained the constant focus of professional interests. Perceptions of the role of technology, models and paradigms of learning and development have been evolving variables. The opportunity to share lessons learnt is the way to connect with the rich and diverse world of learning professionals, to get new experiences to enable further quest for innovation and creativity in supporting learning and professional growth in the landscape that is defined by the fast-paced technological change.
