Education Innovation Laboratory (EdLabs) – Harvard

Student Run – A space where students will be able to cooperate and collaborate on education projects with a future oriented perspective. By being part of an innovation lab students will be able to share ideas and discuss what they consider to be most relevant to the future of education. Topics such as invisible learning, gamification of education, open education resources, the achievement gap, and the growing impact of online education will be discussed by the members of the innovation lab. To insure that projects will expand away from the drawing board, project will be monitored and regularly discussed.

The lab hopes to bring students together from a wide range of fields. Other universities across the country have established innovation labs but unlike other labs in the country, our initiative hopes to be student run and student centered.

–        Discuss Topics – Share Ideas – Books and Information about other projects

–        Make a list of project with implementation steps

–        Recruit students for these projects through an intensive marketing campaign.
