Rationale for inclusion in the Taxonomy
The field of education is a complicated space and there is no ‘one-size fits all’ solution/approach that works in this space. The complexity of this domain calls for exploring ideas that have the potential to transform ways of understanding education and change ways of learning for the student. It is impossible to know and do this, solely based on one’s own experience. The inclusion of this concept is to bring content onto the platform from the world of education researchers, practitioners, academicians, social scientists etc. from across the world who have tried and tested innovative and effective ways of improving quality of education and its provisioning, understand how interventions can be designed, implemented and managed, how programmatic change can be designed, implemented and managed, how educational change can take place that is sustainable.
