In the words of Macmillan s CEO, Annette Thomas: Today the way in which people learn and teach have changed seismically. From interactive textbooks and tests to adaptive learning, flipped classrooms and customized and open source content, there has never been such an exciting time to be part of the education landscape. Developments in the area of technology are revolutionising the way we function on a daily basis, and classrooms, here and all over the world, are adapting to support this.
