Summary:

This collected book is about the eduLab projects, an initiative with focus on Scaling Change through Apprenticising and Ecological Leadership, designed to surface and spread ground-up information and communication technology-based pedagogical innovations. It presents the goals and rationale behind eduLab, an overview of the research projects conducted by its principal investigators during its funding tenure, as well as synthesizing thoughts on the entire endeavor. This book not only marks the achievements of the eduLab programme but also serves as inspiration for future projects. It presents Singapore education in action – a continually evolving and adapting education system that delivers a system well known for its high quality as much as it is forward-looking.
