The Hub is where Faculty staff and students prototype new ways of teaching before they reach a real classroom. We trial educational technology, develop and evaluate teaching approaches, and run workshops for students on practicum and for serving teachers.
Nothing leaves the Hub on the strength of a demonstration. Every tool and method is trialled in a partner school, evaluated with the teachers who used it, and then revised, released or dropped.

A teacher, a student or a research team brings a problem worth prototyping against. Proposals open twice a year.
A small team builds the smallest thing that could work, usually within six to eight weeks.
The prototype goes into two or three partner classrooms for a term, with the teachers involved from the first lesson.
Findings are written up and published openly, and the tool is released, revised or retired on the evidence.
