At EdmodoCon 2015, Global Education Publisher C. M. Rubin invited Vibhu Mittal, CEO of Edmodo (No. 1 K-12 social learning network in the world that reaches over 51 million users across 190 countries) and Michael Horn, co-founder and executive director of education at the Clayton Christensen Institute, to discuss the challenges and opportunities educators face today and in the years ahead for student learning in a world driven by innovative online technology.
