This book by Zaid Ali Alsagoff, explores 43 of his

most inspiring and impactful learning adventures

over one decade (2007 - 2016). These 43 learning

adventures were originally captured in his blog

(ZaidLearn) during this period, which explored

various inspirational educators, technologies,

methods and ideas to innovate and transform

learning. You will also discover why he pursued a

personalized learning journey rather than a PhD

route, and some mind boggling lessons learned on

the way. Finally, it explores whether any of his

learning adventures made an impact and a

significant original contribution to the world of

learning.
