and lead innovation, identify talents and revolutionise education
Sir Ken Robinson has worked with educational institutions and
governments around the world, as well as some of the globe’s
leading creative organisations. In this presentation, Sir Ken will
challenge notions of creativity and innovation – from the education
sector’s basic assumptions about intelligence and achievement,
to the myths about innovation that hold many organisations back.
With a wry sense of humour, Sir Ken will show you:
•	 How to unlock creativity and innovation in education
		 and in business
•	 How YOU can create ‘systemic innovation’ from the ground up
•	 How focusing on ‘The Element’ is an essential strategy in 		
		 transforming education, business and communities to meet 	
		 the challenges of living and succeeding into the future

We all know that a proactive mobility strategy can improve
compliance flexibility, device security and contain network costs. But
with the cascade of devices throwing you into turmoil how can you
ensure you have the most comprehensive mobility strategy in place?
	 •	The importance of onboarding
	 •	Securing against data loss
	 •	Keeping mobile data costs down

Further Panellist to be announced
11:50	 You had me at hello! Using Splunk to help you Improve IT
Efficiency, Security and Reduce Cost from the get-go.
Getting the most value out of technology investments is an institutional
imperative, not a nice-to-have for university IT departments today.
The pressure to deliver more robust IT services under severe resource
constraints is a constant challenge. Having full visibility into the
network, infrastructure and applications that form the backbone of
educational enterprises is critical. Join us to hear from Splunk and
one of our Higher Education customers, an Australian world-class
university, and how we delivered real-time Security analytics and an
understanding of what was happening across their IT systems.

About the Masterclass
About your Masterclass Leader
Who Should Attend?
For over 25 years, The Wolfram group have been pushing
the boundaries of computation to deliver ground-breaking
technology solutions across corporate, government and
educational sectors. Conrad Wolfram has been a key part of
this process. He has also started to lead change in a revolution
in maths education, founding computerbasedmath.org to
drive implementation of the change.
Conrad’s Masterclass with be broken into 3 sections:
1. Lessons learnt: the first 25 years of Wolfram and founding 		
	computerbasedmath.org
2. Case studies: examples to work through--with what
	 actually happened
3. Key future of computation, data science and technology to
	 build into your strategy.
Conrad Wolfram, physicist, mathematician and technologist, is strategic director and European co-founder/CEO of the Wolfram
group of companies. Described as the place where “Computation meets Knowledge” and the “The Math Company”, the Wolfram
Group specializes in pushing boundaries at the intersection of computation, maths, and knowledge, including making Mathematica
software, the Wolfram|Alpha knowledge engine (powering knowledge answers for Apple’s Siri), the Computable Document Format
(CDF) standard and Wolfram Language (bundled with Raspberry Pi).
Conrad is also the world’s leading advocate for a fundamental shift of maths education to be computer-based, arguing that this is the
only way to solve the global maths education crisis. His widely acknowledged 2010 TED talk laid out the rationale and roadmap for this
rethink and the same year he founded computerbasedmath.org (CBM) to drive implementation of the change. The movement is now
a worldwide force in re-engineering the STEM curriculum and in February 2013 it was announced that Estonia would be the first partner.

About your Masterclass Leader
Many research studies suggest that between 70% and 80% of
workplace learning derives from informal experiential learning rather
than direct formal training or instruction. Finding ways to enrich and
develop the workplace as a natural learning ecosystem is a highly
effective way of developing workforce performance.
This masterclass lifts the veil on informal learning. Its core theme
is understanding, assessing, and planning to support informal,
experiential and social learning – including the appropriate use of
social media.
The masterclass is suitable for frontline managers, learning &
development staff, HR professionals, and anyone else with a
responsibility or interest in promoting informal and social learning in
the workplace.
Identify the value of informal and social learning and its impacts on productivity.
Assess how the structure, culture and material circumstances of the workplace can help or hinder informal and social learning
Consider how technologies and social media can facilitate informal and social learning
Take practical steps to improve informal and social learning in the workplace.
Neil Ballantyne is the Director of Learning Designs a New Zealand based company offering research, development and consultancy
services for professionals working in human services education.
For over twenty years Neil has contributed to the promotion of engaging, innovative, and evidence-based learning for human service
professionals. He has worked on initiatives to embed learning in the workplace, and designed blended learning programmes for
professionals working in youth development, alcohol and drug services, and social work.
Previously Neil was a Reader at the Glasgow School of Social Work, and Learning Technology Manager at the Institute for Research
& Innovation in Social Services (IRISS) in Scotland. At IRISS he led a team of information scientists, multi-media designers, and learning
technologists, established the Learning Exchange (an open access digital repository of learning resources), and contributed to Social
Services Knowledge Scotland (a knowledge management portal for Scotland’s social services workforce).
Neil is a Fellow of the UK Higher Education Academy, and a board member of husITa.

Bret Watson, CIO, Harry Perkins Institute of Medical Research Buildings PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT 3:00 Computation, technology and the new era of learning Conrad’s instigation and leadership of business and technical initiatives has been central to many key innovations in the technical computing industry--including leading efforts to democratize computation through automation and interactivity.

With a wry sense of humour, Sir Ken will show you: • How to unlock creativity and innovation in education and in business • How YOU can create ‘systemic innovation’ from the ground up • How focusing on ‘The Element’ is an essential strategy in transforming education, business and communities to meet the challenges of living and succeeding into the future Sir Ken Robinson Internationally acclaimed expert on education, creativity and innovation 5:30 Network drinks function and exhibition viewing 7:00 EduTECH Gala Dinner 7:00 Registration opens 8:30 Opening remarks and exhibition viewing Yvette Adams, Founder, The Creative Collective & ICT Woman of the Year 2013 THE GLOBAL BIG PICTURE 8:40 OPENING KEYNOTE Tech trends in tertiary education – looking back and peering forward As President and CEO of the world’s leading association for the advancement of IT in tertiary education, there is perhaps nobody better placed to tell you about the game-changers than Dr Diana Oblinger.

For over 25 years, The Wolfram group have been pushing the boundaries of computation to deliver ground-breaking technology solutions across corporate, government and educational sectors. Conrad Wolfram has been a key part of this process. He has also started to lead change in a revolution in maths education, founding computerbasedmath.org to drive implementation of the change. Conrad’s Masterclass with be broken into 3 sections: 1. Lessons learnt: the first 25 years of Wolfram and founding computerbasedmath.org 2. Case studies: examples to work through--with what actually happened 3. Key future of computation, data science and technology to build into your strategy. Conrad Wolfram, physicist, mathematician and technologist, is strategic director and European co-founder/CEO of the Wolfram group of companies. Described as the place where “Computation meets Knowledge” and the “The Math Company”, the Wolfram Group specializes in pushing boundaries at the intersection of computation, maths, and knowledge, including making Mathematica software, the Wolfram|Alpha knowledge engine (powering knowledge answers for Apple’s Siri), the Computable Document Format (CDF) standard and Wolfram Language (bundled with Raspberry Pi). Conrad is also the world’s leading advocate for a fundamental shift of maths education to be computer-based, arguing that this is the only way to solve the global maths education crisis. His widely acknowledged 2010 TED talk laid out the rationale and roadmap for this rethink and the same year he founded computerbasedmath.org (CBM) to drive implementation of the change. The movement is now a worldwide force in re-engineering the STEM curriculum and in February 2013 it was announced that Estonia would be the first partner.

About your Masterclass Leader Many research studies suggest that between 70% and 80% of workplace learning derives from informal experiential learning rather than direct formal training or instruction. Finding ways to enrich and develop the workplace as a natural learning ecosystem is a highly effective way of developing workforce performance. This masterclass lifts the veil on informal learning. Its core theme is understanding, assessing, and planning to support informal, experiential and social learning – including the appropriate use of social media. The masterclass is suitable for frontline managers, learning & development staff, HR professionals, and anyone else with a responsibility or interest in promoting informal and social learning in the workplace. Identify the value of informal and social learning and its impacts on productivity. Assess how the structure, culture and material circumstances of the workplace can help or hinder informal and social learning Consider how technologies and social media can facilitate informal and social learning Take practical steps to improve informal and social learning in the workplace. Neil Ballantyne is the Director of Learning Designs a New Zealand based company offering research, development and consultancy services for professionals working in human services education. For over twenty years Neil has contributed to the promotion of engaging, innovative, and evidence-based learning for human service professionals. He has worked on initiatives to embed learning in the workplace, and designed blended learning programmes for professionals working in youth development, alcohol and drug services, and social work. Previously Neil was a Reader at the Glasgow School of Social Work, and Learning Technology Manager at the Institute for Research & Innovation in Social Services (IRISS) in Scotland.
