99 Education-Based Innovations

From Toddler Learning Tablets to Futuristic Schools

— November 6, 2011 — Social Good
These education-based innovations really reinforce the idea that life is a continual learning process. The innovations range from educational tools for toddlers and post-grads, to learning centers and online platforms.

These education-based innovations are remarkable in their scope and point the way forward for the future of learning. One that really caught my eye is the student loan micro-lending platform; it's a fantastic idea to help students find means to pay for higher education. Another excellent innovation is the company that lets users learn to drive completely online.

Implications - These education-based innovations hone in on the significance of technology in contemporary society. Incorporating these tech devices into teaching programs is a great way to stay up-to-speed on the current state of the world. Businesses should consider using technology in their own teaching programs when training employees.
