From Purpose to Practice is one of a growing set of free resources designed to support school leaders and educators in making thoughtful, purposeful decisions about how technology is used in teaching and learning.

It is written for teachers. It starts from seven things good teaching already does and shows where technology can help, offering:

  • Seven research-based principles
  • For each one, what it is, how technology helps, what to watch out for and something to try
  • A note on AI
  • The references behind each principle

For school leaders, its companion guide Beyond the device sets out a digital strategy that starts with learning.

Today’s problems come from yesterday’s solutions.
