Abstract

Today's high schools are increasingly based around the use of digital technologies. Students and teachers are encouraged to `Bring Your Own Device', teaching takes place through `learning management systems' and educators are rushing to implement innovations such as flipped classrooms, personalized learning, analytics and `maker' technologies. Yet despite these developments, the core processes of school appear to have altered little over the past 50 years. As the twenty-first century progresses, concerns are growing that the basic model of `school' is `broken' and no longer `fit for purpose'.
