This invitational Summit brought together a group of 100 researchers, policy-makers, teachers, journal editors, and representatives from the corporate sector from more than 30 countries to reflect on emerging issues concerning the integration of information technology (IT) in education. Under the theme “Research-informed strategies to address educational challenges in a digitally networked world” eight thematic working groups addressed the following issues: 1. Towards new systems for schooling in the digital age; 2. Advancing mobile learning in formal and informal settings; 3. Professional development for policy-makers, school leaders and teachers; 4. Digital equity and intercultural education; 5. Assessment as, for and of 21st century learning; 6. Advancing computational thinking in 21st century learning; and more.
