Innovators in Education

​Introduction

The educational field is full of innovators who have enriched their work and gone beyond the limits of their basic duties by designing and innovating various teaching and learning methods. However, most of the efforts have unrevealed to the community, which has limited the exchange of ideas between professional learning communities, benefiting from them, and developing them.
Based on Qatar Vision 2030 that supports the knowledge-based economy, and the role of Qatar University in sponsoring various initiatives that support innovation and creativity, "Innovators in Education" initiative was conceived with the aim of fostering a culture of excellence within the realm of education. This is aligned with the vision of the College of Education, represented by the National Center For Educational Development, the College of Engineering, and the Office of Strategic Innovation, Entrepreneurship, and Economic Development.
