CORE Education's Ten Trends
CORE Education's Ten Trends in education are looked forward to each year.
What are the trends about?
Each year, CORE Education’s experienced staff of researchers, education trainers, and technology experts pool together their expertise, and through a thorough process put together and publish CORE’s prognosis on what are the coming ten major ICT trends that will make an impact upon education in New Zealand (and other parts of the world) in the coming year.
Each theme has been identified by CORE as a trend in eLearning that will impact on the way in which early childhood centres, schools and tertiary institutions in NZ embrace and adopt eLearning technologies and practices in the coming year. While the focus is primarily on trends associated with technology use in education, some do not. These have been selected because of the way in which they impact on the way(s) in which the technologies can or will be used. Within each overall trend there are several sub-themes that are listed or explained.
How should the trends be used?
The purpose in presenting these trends is to provide a glimpse of the ‘big picture’ within which we operate in the education system. It is important to recognize that these are trends, not specific predictions. As such, they are presented to provoke further research, investigation and discussion, in order to determine how they may affect the strategic planning within your educational institution.
Feedback and discussion
Each of the trends is presented in summary form, with a discussion forum attached. You are invited to share your thoughts, questions or comments on each of the themes in this forum. The forums can be used to share stories of the trends are impacting on your centre/school, asking questions for clarification or sharing links to further information.
Further information
CORE staff are available to speak to staff groups about any of these themes, or to present to cluster groups or at conferences, either in person or using an online synchronous communications system. Further inquires should be addressed to:

We cannot thank the CORE team enough for their work, their support and their insights and for facilitating this opportunity not just for teachers and students, but for us too.
