"""The Future of Learning Playbook is a beacon of wisdom in this dynamic landscape, meticulously weaving people-centered design thinking tools with actionable insights for transformative educational impact. This work is not only a treasure trove of knowledge that I wish I had in my earlier professional career but is also a current companion guiding me and my team through the challenges of edtech entrepreneurship.""  -- Enrico Poli, Zanichelli Venture ""This book takes a very intelligent approach: instead of expressing the vision of the desirable future of higher education in an abstract way, it puts it in the form of the visions of personas representing different stakeholders, built from in-depth interviews. This makes the reading more enjoyable, understandable and useful.""  -- Dr Ramon Bragós, UPC - Technical University of Catalonia ""While the proliferation of automation leads us to wonder about the quintessential human skills, so the supply of creativity, innovation and entrepreneurship learning offerings increases. This timely, accessible and well-presented book is packed with insights, resources, canvases and perspectives, and will be a major support for everyone involved in the learning process."" -- Dr Rob Sheffield, Bluegreen Learning Ltd ""A helpful and practical resource for anyone who is thinking about the future of our education systems and how to redesign learning practices but doesn’t know where to start. This playbook will be useful for a variety of actors, inside and outside of traditional education systems."" -- Louise Pulford, CEO of Social Innovation Exchange (SIX) ""This book provides a practical perspective on learning, focusing on the learner's point of view rather than solely on institutional perspectives. In our rapidly evolving society, where staying up to date with emerging realities is crucial, this book serves as a reference point for designing and implementing effective teaching and training practices.""  -- Dr Pablo Garcia Tello, CERN IdeaSquare"
