Joanne Quinn <\/strong><\/span>is the global director of New Pedagogies for Deep Learning (NPDL), where she leads a global innovation partnership involving twenty countries working together to activate deep, learner-centred, real-world learning by fostering the competencies known as the 6Cs. She is also an internationally renowned consultant, speaker and author on learning, leadership and system change. She is the co-author of “The Drivers: Transforming Learning for Students, Schools and Systems” (Corwin, 2024), among others.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

New Pedagogies for Deep Learning (NPDL)<\/strong> is a global innovation partnership committed to transforming learning so that all learners thrive by developing the six global competencies – citizenship, character, communication, critical thinking, collaboration and creativity – they need to flourish in this complex and ever-changing world. Deep Learning includes a set of collaborative learning tools and processes that transform teachers into activators and architects of learning.<\/p>\n

Interview with Joanne Quinn<\/h3>\n
Deep Learning enables educational innovation on a global scale in tune with the needs of the twenty-first century and educating the world. Could you explain why you chose \u2018Engage the World – Change the World\u2019 and how you talk about the project?<\/h5>\n

We began the Deep Learning work \u2018to foster deep learning so that ALL learners contribute to the common good, address global challenges and flourish in a complex world\u2019.<\/p>\n

The hyper-connectedness of today\u2019s world means that in addition to internal development, young people also have to possess the skills to collaborate and problem-solve with others from a wide range of cultures and backgrounds.<\/p>\n

We need to make learning as addictive as social media, which means real-time interaction and the ability to see results. \u2018Engage the World – Change the World\u2019 thus embodies the philosophy that students learn for today and don\u2019t have to wait to use that learning in the distant future.<\/p>\n<\/div>

In Deep Learning students learn for today and don\u2019t wait to use that learning in the distant future<\/h6>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

The six educational objectives of Deep Learning are <\/span>prioritise education in being for learners. Could you explain to us why you chose them and especially why you consider character important, which few other systems do?<\/span><\/h5>\n

Deep Learning is now a global association in more than twenty countries. We started with a simple question: \u2018What do we want students to know, to be able to do and to be?\u2019. The words might vary, but when the groups reached consensus, six competencies emerged: Character, Citizenship, Collaboration, Communication, Creativity and Critical Thinking. Each of the six competencies has a set of specific dimensions that describe the key aspects of each and the way to develop it.<\/p>\n

The terms Character and Citizenship were complicated because they have different meanings depending on context and culture.<\/p>\n

As partners of Global, we chose the word \u2018Character\u2019 to describe three fundamental internal dimensions or attributes:<\/p>\n
