Educational Transformation through Technology at MIT

We are launching the most extensive array of coordinated educational innovations the Institute has embarked on in a quarter-century. From single-semester experiments by individual faculty to sweeping institutional commitments, internal initiatives to university and industry collaborations, all work toward educational transformation and renewal in the classroom and around the globe.
