The report’s findings were identified through a qualitative research process designed and conducted by the NMC that engaged a panel of 61 education and technology experts representing 20 countries across six continents. The collaboration focused on a set of research questions designed to surface significant trends and challenges and to identify developing technologies likely to be adopted within the five-year horizon. A geographically and experientially diverse panel came to consensus on the profiled topics’ impact on the practice of K-12 education.
