    Digifest 2019: The students of the future

    Education, and the way students learn, is changing all the time.  

    Digifest 2019 gave us the chance to find out more about the emerging trends in Higher Education, see how technology is influencing teaching and learning and listen to case studies from universities across the country forging ahead with these new developments.  

    The two day event at the ICC in Birmingham was packed with insights, tips and emerging trends from the HE and FE sectors.  

    At Pearson, we create tools to support learners at every stage of their journey. Hearing from those institutions using technology to improve learner experiences was a great way to really understand the challenges facing leaders today.  

    Hundreds of delegates took part in workshops, interactive presentations and heard from some of the leading voices on digital developments in teaching and learning.
