Alliance President Heads “Down Under” to Study Australian Uses of Digital Learning

Alliance President Bob Wise landed in Sydney, Australia yesterday for a week-long trip that includes visits to several schools investing in digital learning for students.

Today, Wise, former governor of West Virginia, went on his first visit to the Catholic Education Diocese of Parramatta. He toured both the elementary school and high school, where Greg Whitby, Executive Director of Schools for the Diocese of Parramatta, introduced some of the innovative ways their institutions are approaching teaching and learning challenges in the 21st Century.
