Education in Motion launches EiM Education Advisory Board
Education in Motion (EiM), a leading global education group,
announced the launch of its EiM Education Advisory Board, a pioneering
initiative designed to advance thought leadership and innovation in education
worldwide.
Formed under the auspices of EiM, whose portfolio includes
the Dulwich College International schools and other premium educational
offerings, the Board will be co-chaired by Lesley Meyer, EiM's Chief Education
Officer with more than 35 years of international school leadership experience,
and Richard Levin, who served as President of Yale University from 1993 to 2013
and Chief Executive Officer of Coursera from 2014 to 2017.
The Advisory Board will bring together leading voices from
academia, policy, and industry to explore bold ideas shaping the future of
learning. Additional members will include Rose Luckin of University College
London, a world-renowned expert on AI in education; David Leebron, former
President of Rice University and former Dean of Columbia Law School; Andrew
Hamilton, former Vice Chancellor of Oxford University and former President of
New York University; and
Doris Sohmen-Pao, former Princeton University trustee and INSEAD MBA Programme
Director, now serving on educational boards in Singapore and worldwide.
Lesley
Meyer, Chief Education Officer at EiM, said, "The EiM Education
Advisory Board reflects our mission to pioneer education. By bringing together
extraordinary thinkers and leaders, we aim to explore fresh ideas that will
inspire the next generation of learning worldwide. Education is the most
powerful force we have to shape a better future, and we are convening some of
the world's most forward-thinking voices to imagine what learning can and
should be for the next generation of students."
Richard
Levin, Frederick William Beinecke Professor of Economics Emeritus at Yale,
added, "Schools today face the dual task of nurturing timeless
intellectual skills while adapting to new modes of learning. The Education
Advisory Board will engage deeply with how best to harness technology,
cultivate critical thinking, and foster creativity, so that education remains
both rigorous and relevant. I am delighted to co-chair this Board and to work
with EiM and global colleagues in shaping conversations that will help schools
and learners thrive in the decades ahead."
