Description

Schools of the Future, Part 1

The school of the future supports 21st century learning through a transformation from teacher-led to student-led learning, an emphasis on hands-on learning and collaboration, a wealth of technology and other tools to foster inquiry, and a physical space that supports all of the above.

Simba Information published a two-part series on schools of the future. Schools of the Future, Part 1: Content and Curriculum focuses on the changing curriculum and the shifting role of teachers and how those factors impact the demand for instructional materials.

Schools of the Future, Part 2: The Physical Space focuses on the changing learning environment, both for new school construction and the reuse of existing space to accommodate new ways of teaching and learning. 

Each report includes five case studies of school districts that are embracing school-of-the-future concepts and changing the way students learn today. Research in the reports draws on in-depth interviews with educators and administrators with cutting-edge school-of-the-future programs.

These reports are designed as reference guides for educational publishers and edtech companies, including product developers, marketers, and providers of education technology tools and devices, professional development resources, classroom furniture and educational equipment, curriculum development, and education content.

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
