Maven Education is a new social enterprise with a mission to improve the culture of Continuing Professional Development for teachers.<\/h3>\n

We are working on building an online service that introduces teachers to a wider world of CPD, and gives credit for sharing!<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Working with Dik Knights<\/a> and Tony Parkin<\/a>, two of the smartest and most insightful people in EdTech, we are shaping a Minimum Viable Product<\/a> around the needs of teachers.<\/p>\n

Free for teachers to use, Maven Education<\/strong> will enable\u00a0teachers to be able to find colleagues that share their CPD interests; give and get open badges for their efforts; and connect\u00a0with other organisations that might be able to help them.\u00a0Maven Education<\/strong> will also help academics and policy makers to be able to find teachers\/schools as partners in research.<\/p>\n

Of course, there is more detail, but as we work with partners and friends to get the roadmap right, we are holding fire.<\/p>\n

To be honest, I\u2019d been sitting on the idea for a while, getting my strength back after an earlier project, which failed (see here<\/a>). Determined to fail better<\/a>, I have been learning the lessons and listening more carefully to the advice of friends.\u00a0I shared Maven for the first time<\/a> at ed-invent<\/a>, where it won the prize and got fantastic feedback.<\/a><\/p>\n

If you would like to be involved in the Beta, join the team, invest, or help us by giving some feedback, please get in touch.<\/p>\n
